In 1962, Pope John XXIII opened the Second Vatican Council with the prophecy that 'a new day is dawning on the Church, bathing her in radiant splendour'. Desiring 'to impart an ever increasing vigour to the Christian life of the faithful', the Council Fathers devoted particular attention to the laity, and set in motion a series of sweeping reforms. The most significant of these centred on refashioning the Church's liturgy--'the source and summit of the Christian life'--in order to make 'it pastorally efficacious to the fullest degree'. Over fifty years on, however, the statistics speak for themselves. In America, only 15% of cradle Catholics say that they attend Mass on a weekly basis; meanwhile, 35% no longer even tick the 'Catholic box' on surveys. In Britain, the signs are direr still. Of those raised Catholic, just 13% still attend Mass weekly, and 37% say they have 'no religion'. But is this all the fault of Vatican II, and its runaway reforms? Or are wider social, cultural, and moral forces primarily to blame? Catholicism is not the only Christian group to have suffered serious declines since the 1960s. If anything Catholics exhibit higher church attendance, and better retention, than most Protestant churches do. If Vatican II is not the cause of Catholicism's crisis, might it instead be the secret to its comparative success? Mass Exodus is the first serious historical and sociological study of Catholic lapsation and disaffiliation. Drawing on a wide range of theological, historical, and sociological sources, Stephen Bullivant offers a comparative study of secularization across two famously contrasting religious cultures: Britain and the USA.

For the Roman Catholic Church, the golden anniversary of the opening of the Second Vatican Council will not mark a golden 50 years since the Council opened. The promise of Vatican II to become a new Pentecost evaporated into a retreat from the Church when its leaders poorly implement the Councils changes. In a Church, excited by the boldness and the spirit of hope of Pope John XXIII, high hopes and great expectations were replaced by caution and curtailment. As this change in spirit seeped through the Church, the hesitancy of a less emboldened church leadership replaced the strong reforming commitments of Pope John.

The Jews of Iraq constituted one of the oldest and most deeply rooted Jewish communities in the world. But in the early 1950s most of them left for Israel, under circumstances that remain the subject of heated controversy. Iraqi Jews: A History examines the role of this community, highlighting the critical years of the late 1940s - after the establishment of the state of Israel - when deep rifts began to appear in Iraqi society. The sad sequence of events that finally led to the mass exodus of Jews in the 1950s was marked by dishonesty on all sides. An impartial and well-documented account of a formerly well-integrated and vibrant community, Iraqi Jews: A History is a landmark in the political and social history of the Middle East.

Between the years 2020 to 2034 more than nine million Jews, inspired and led by a remarkable man, migrate from the insecurity and uncertainty of Israel in the Middle East to a secure and peaceful New Israel in the Baja California peninsula of Mexico. In this story, Dr. Yohan Cohen details the life of Ari Netanyahu and his messianic mission to deliver the Jewish people away from the hostility of the Arab world. Confronting the terrible drug cartel wars that torment Mexico with incredible violence and high death tolls, Ari Netanyahu and his associates from Mossad, the Israeli secret service, lead an anti-drug cartel campaign that eventually eliminates the cartel threat in Mexico and Central America. Dire predictions and warnings by climate scientists about global warming become reality as chilling views are seen of what a hotter world will be in twenty-two years. Mark Twain said, “Whiskey is for drinking; water is for fighting over,” and water soon becomes more precious than gold. In the Middle East, water becomes more sought after than oil. Major future geopolitical events occur in the Middle East and the Far East, and Dr. Cohen’s story ends in 2037 with a catastrophic event in the State of Palestine shortly after all Jews have resettled in their new homeland of Nuevo Israel in Mexico.
