I can’t speak to Ireland but here in the US there’s a growing number of traditionalist/Latin rite churches that are rejecting a lot of the woke politics that have been coming out of the Vatican. And it’s overwhelmingly younger families attending. If you told teenage Catholic me that there was gonna be a resurgence in young women veiling in church I would’ve laughed at you.

That’s good to see. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t agree with the Church's stance on same sex unions, contraception and divorce (although I would like to see the divorce rate go down). But I can get married or civilly partnered in a registry office, I don’t need to do it at a church.

Yup that’s my thoughts exactly on hearing about this.
