Let's hope he is correct.

I keep wondering, once the Catholic church and other key theistic institutions lose traction with their congregations,

1. what will happen in the real estate markets with all the churches and institutions and land they own.
2. what will become of the organizations - can they in fact "re-imagine" themselves, such as into secular or even atheistic organizations that serve various key community purposes.
3. when there will also be increased public re-examining not only of whether God exists, but of the moral teachings implicit and explicit in the Jewish, Islamic and Christian theistic systems.

Given the number and history of protecting and hiding
PEDOPHILES
by the Church's Priests and their team of LAWYERS...
-----> "Uh-DUH!!!!
-----------> "they THINK???"

He might be forced to get a real job! Oh, no!

And is there a down side to this story?

Personally I can't think of one.

This is great news! People are waking up finally!!!!!

Priests had a habit of vanishing when they were accused of diddling altar boys too

If the younger people are turning away from religion. That makes me wonder how many a catholic in name only?

Hooray for education!

Can't blame the people to start smelling bullshit after over 2 millenniums of announcing the second coming while the Vatican enriched itself and protected pedophiles and even Nazis, eventually even the dumbest fuck has to start saying, now wait a minute here...

Sure and begorrah!!!!!!

Oh, happy day!

You can't fool the Irish for more than a couple centuries. When they catch on it's noticeable.

There's still plenty of devout Catholics in Ireland. I will say that have a lot of atheists as well.
