You might ask yourself where are all the priests who left in the JPII/BXVI years?  Where are all the sisters who left?  Where are all the Catholics who stopped practicing the faith all over Europe, the Americas, Australia during the years of the JPII/BXVI papacies?  What happened during the years of the JPII/BXVI papacies that marriages, baptisms, use of confession, attendance at Mass, all just fell down, down, down?  That priests and sisters left religious life by the tens of thousands?

The priesthood in the U.S., many European countries, Australia is so decimated after all the years of JPII/BXVI that it may not recover.  Good grief, Ireland has to import priests from Africa!  

The legacy of JPII/BXVI is the decimation of the faith in the traditional countries where the faith was strong.  JPII/BXVI style of papacies were the problem.  Maintaining their iron fisted ways may satisfy the noisy ones who remain, but there are a lot who remain quietly glad of Francis and hopeful now.
