10. Um ... I don't think we'll get "real" Christianity back just by the demise of the Catholic Church.

(I also think the purported demise is a long way from happening, but that's a different discussion.)

I'm assuming by "real" Christianity you mean the one that focuses on the teachings of Jesus, to non-judgmentally care for the less-advantaged members of society with love and compassion. In that case there's a slew of non-Catholic fundamentalist sects that would have to go away, too.

I'm not holding my breath waiting on any part of that. Even though I agree with your last line. (Jesus, based on what I was taught as a kid. I'm not sure everyone's "Jesus" is the same guy.)
