Gilliam,
Lots of interesting points in that piece…too many really.
Re. Mugabe…no-one can seriously object to his attendance and at the same time celebrate the presence of the war monger in chief and his ghoulish entourage.
But as for the more substantive point:- yes Europe, but you might as well count in also North America are dead corners of history so far as Christendom is concerned. All is left is too give it a decent burial.
The real life, the real mediation of Christ’s body on earth is among the poor Church communities of Latin America , Africa and the rest of the emerging world.

Not in the US, not yet anyway.
By the way, here is how what you call the ‘neoconservatives’ see the passing the Pope:
John Paul the Great
Statesman and prophet, he overcame the poverty of the possible.
The People’s Pope
Scenes from the funeral.
A Global Papacy
And its foes.
News analysis of the papal election.
The Vatican pays attention to demographic shifts.
