The leader of Poland's Roman Catholics has admitted his church faces a devastating decline as young Poles turn away from the church in huge numbers.

One of the main problems is the failure to acknowledge and deal with sex abuse of children by priests.

In a country with 90 percent of its population identifying as Catholic, less than 10 percent of young people - with more liberal attitudes to things like abortion, divorce and LGBTQ rights - have a positive view of the church.
