A million people, mostly youth, celebrated mass together for the jubilee of youth yesterday. France is leading the way in a notable increase of adult baptisms, doubling in 2 years. And the last 2 masses I attended at different cathedrals were standing room only on ordinary Sundays. There are signs of a revitalization and rediscovery of the depth and truth of the Christian faith.
I can see the similarities in American society plain as day. The greatest thought I have been sitting with is the rise of Islam in the United States. Three to four years ago I thought we would have a civil war again but of political ideology. I now can throw religious war in the US into the mix.
