...clad splendor of Wrigley Field and boast alumni like Ernie Banks and Billy Williams. The anonymous Sox play in a soul-challenged modern bowl on a site that was once downwind of the city's now vanished stockyards. One poll found that 36% of Cubs fans will cheer for the Astros.

In referring to Pope John Paul II's popularity with young people, you quoted a German Cardinal: "The girls in St. Peter's Square who cheer the Pope have the Pill in their pockets." I don't think the Cardinal was referring simply to contraceptives. He was making a general statement about many aspects of contemporary sexuality and behavior proscribed by the Catholic Church.
