Religion

but am hoping that it is the beginning of necessary change within the vatican. Time will tell.

There are voices (like marie collins) that are necessary in the catholic world. She's been a bug in their ear for awhile now. But on a local level, there are more people holding local parishes and diocese to the fire. People are pissed and want change. If they do not change, the church will slowly die out while grasping to every last thread of power that it previously held.
