It's a historical (or perhaps psychological) mystery how American Catholics went from devout to depraved in two generations, but a visit to Mass in most any area of the country will bear out our fellow-Catholics' utter trashiness and lack of any sort of spiritual feeling. One universal example of this is the mad dash to flee the church immediately after receiving Communion. I had thought to make up a poster to be displayed in the backs of churches that said "Judas was the first Catholic to leave Mass early" but a quick Google search showed that many other people had thought to do the same thing.
