HERE is the victims group that the Pope SHOULD apologise to...

The Roman Catholic faithful who have suffered through 40 year of the auto-destruction of the Church.

What About the Other Victims of Abuse?

How many millions of similarly disillusioned Catholics left the Church after the Mass was Protestantized, the schools liberalized, the nuns feminized, and the priests modernized? Are they not victims of an abuse every bit as traumatic as that suffered by victims of sexual abuse? Separated from their children and spouses, many were given stones to eat and eventually went in search of something more.

Today, thousands of Catholic homeschoolers stand in silent witness to the sense of utter abandonment felt by the Catholics that stayed on. Mothers and fathers who can’t even trust Catholic schools to teach the Faith, are forced to take on a job that once required the talents and education of entire orders of nuns and priests. They’re on their own because all too many Catholic schools can’t (or won’t) teach the Rosary, the basic prayers of the Faith, even sound doctrine—preferring instead to scandalize students with obscene Theology of the Body classes and other sex-ed programs that cry to heaven for vengeance.

Catholics born in the 40’s and 50’s can well remember the confidence they once knew in a Church that, like Christ Himself, would be the same today, tomorrow and forever. The Mass was the rock, offered by priests who faced God in the tabernacle, exactly as priests had done for a thousand years and throughout the whole world; Mass was heard and seen and prayed exactly as every saint, martyr and pope had heard and seen and prayed it back to the days of the Apostles.

The Remnant


It seems that the Pope has made it his practice to apologise to every special interest victim's group that comes along but, when it comes to the one group that he is personally responsible for, no apologies are forthcoming. Many of these victims have suffered in silence for 40 years.

Unlike many of the other things the Pope is forced to apologise for on a daily basis, the suffering of the Roman Catholic faithful can be traced directly back to the Pope himself. As a theologan during the Vatican II Council, Father Ratzinger helped to bring about many of the progressive changes which are responsible for the delapitated state of the Church today.

Those who have held on to their faith throughout and in spite of the changes since the council deserve to have their suffering acknowledged as well.
