One can't speak about the Church of the last 30 years by leaving out the Church of the late 60's or any period before then.  Not  if one is serious about making their case beyond gazing at their own small contemporary circle.  One also has to take in the entirety of the global church, and that includes the Latin American Church that produced Pope Francis.  That continent has a Catholicism that is also in serious decline, as in the West, but the reasons are different.  So when I look at the big picture, I have a different view than you do, and I don't particularly want to argue the differences.
