Catholicism’s rise in America is a reaction to, and a rejection of, the Left’s relativism. Today, self-styled “progressives” are in the vanguard of America’s Left and at the core of progressives’ agenda is a vacuous relativism.
Both ends of America’s political press, the New York Times and Washington Times, recently ran features on Catholicism’s rise in America. Data from 140 of America’s 175 Catholic dioceses showed the number of converts to Catholicism jumped 38% during the last Easter weekend: 139% in L.A., 52% in Chicago, and 36% in New York City.
