by By Cornwell, John
Category: Religion , Christianity , Catholic

Breaking Faith addresses issues that range from the core concepts of everyday practice to the organization of the Church worldwide - the "graying" of the priesthood, the growing discontent among women religious, the determination of the hard-line conservative movement to close ranks against any hint of dissent - and finally, the power of Rome, the role of the Pope, and the lasting effects of John Paul II's autocratic rule.
