And as a member of their community, I felt helpless to do anything about it because we aren’t mobilized as a community to respond in a collective way, which is what is needed. And minorities are great at doing this kind of thing. You seem them mitigating these kinds of vulnerabilities because they recognize that, as a minority, they are vulnerable. But Catholics seem to take pride in being as exposed to the world as possible or perhaps it’s because we’re the largest religion in the world, so we don’t need to protect our community at all. Well, the fact is, especially for faithful Catholics, we are a minority and if we want to ensure the vitality of our communities, we need to be more deliberate about adopting measures that will strengthen those communities. What the current trends in our culture and professional sphere have taught me is that our indifference and lack of action on something that the Popes have been calling for, for a long time, has consequences and those consequences reveal themselves in times like what we have been living through more recently.
