How many posters here are saying that Archbishop Chaput is advocating a smaller, purer Church in the same way that they accused Pope Benedict of wishing for a smaller, purer Church. Neither the Archbishop not the Pope Emeritus wished for any such thing and only NCReporter via David Gibson suggests that they did with misleading headlines and cherry-picked quotations. Would anyone seriously accept David Gibson as an authoritative commentator upon the Catholic Church?
I am a failed seminarian and my initial reaction was to blame the Church for my failure and to turn against it.  The wisdom which comes with age eventually disabused me of that frame of mind: obviously the wisdom of age has passed Gibson by and he continues to pursue his vendetta.
Neither Chaput nor Benedict desired a smaller Church; they predicted that it would be the result of the creeping secularisation within the Catholic Church: a secularisation Pope Francis seems to be content to allow to continue.
