Why young people leave the Church
Pope Francis said the trip to Panama for World Youth Day met his expectations, although he was not able to give an overall assessment of the journey. “With this I go before the Lord to pray…” he said. Asked about why young people leave the Church, he pointed to the lack of witness on the part of Christians, notably priests and bishops, but even Popes. Apart from the pastors, he also lamented “hypocritical Christians” who alienate people from the Church. The Pope suggested that, if they are not willing to be good witnesses, such people should not call themselves Catholics, but instead say that they were raised Catholic, but are lukewarm or worldly.
