Can we save the Catholic Church? / Hans Küng.

A Catholic theologian describes how, despite the optimism of Vatican II, the Catholic Church's return to conservatism has hurt its status in the modern world, advocating a church renewal that addresses issues of sexuality, celibacy of priests, and the role of women.
