Catholic AnswerThe problems facing the Church are pretty much exactly the same as 2,000 years ago and they boil down to three: the world, the flesh, and the devil; which in turn can be boiled down to one: SIN. There are pressing problems, like education, priest shortage in many areas of the world, and, of course, secularization-"the
world, the flesh, and the devil." The answer above reflects all of that, we need people to know their faith, to put it into practice, and to pray; to be humble, and to take up their cross daily and follow Christ. The Church is the Mystical Body of Christ and is not going to change, in fact, cannot change. Our Blessed Lord came to earth not to change but to get us to change, to humble ourselves, to obey Him, and to help our fellow men.

Well, "catholic" spelled with a lower-case "c", is a word meaning, "all-inclusive". It is not necessarily a religious word, at all. Roman Catholic is a Christian religion, and the word, "Catholic" is a religious word meaning, "all-inclusive" or "available to all". There are 2 Catholic churches. The church in Roman-held areas was a rival to the church in areas of what is now Turkey. The head of that church was in Byzantium. Eventually, the 2 church group broke apart, one being called the Roman Catholic church, and the other being called the Byzantine Catholic church. The Byzantine Catholic church is today better know as the Greek Orthodox church and Russian Orthodox church. Thus church follows the old, old practices that the Roman Catholic church has abandoned or altered over the years.
