What this episode covers

In this episode, the guys consider whether the demographics for young adults are trending toward more Catholics as a share of the population, what that might mean either way, and what is the responsibility of those already Catholic for such converts. How would this change our understanding of the last handful of decades if it is so, and what must we persist doing no matter what the demographics tell us?
