Youth Say Let Down By Church—
(continued from page 1)
mapping out plans to improve
the quality of life for the
nation’s 55 million children
under age 14, they took time
out of workshops for an
interview with NC News.
Just as the delegates as a
whole had indicted the nation
for neglecting its young,' these
Catholic youths said' the
Church, too, must revamp its
approach to its younger
members.
It could start they
suggested, by offering youths
alternatives to what they
termed the “thou-shalt-nbt”
negative religion they hear
about now.
Otherwise, they agreed, the
Catholic Church will lose its
reputation “as a great
institution.” The time has
come, they charged, for the
Church to take activist roles in
society when it counts “and
not just after the fact,”
The Church should tune
into attitudes and values of the
future, said Dah Sienkiewicz,
national CYO president and a
freshman at Wayne State
University in Detroit. He is
from Crosse Pointe, Mich.
One way to do this, he
proposed, is for the Church
“to begin to establish the same
procedures as the White House
Conference on Children.”
This means, he said,
“getting into real viable
concerns” such as youth
alienation, black Catholics and
poverty. “It’s got to start
listening to its youth,
Mexican-Americans, blacks
and other minorities instead of
taking the Richard Nixon
approach of reaching
middle-class America.”
Nixon came under fire
from the other youtfys for the
way he launched the
conference here Sunday, Dec.
13. Although the nation’s
chief executive instructed the
delegates to “listen well to the
voices of young America” as
they worked, the youths said
his address was used to
political advantage.
•
The president told the
conference that his Family
Assistance-Plan-providing a
guaranteed income for the
poor--was the “most
important piece of social
legislation in our nation’s
history” for children. He said
it Would be a “tragedy of
missed opportunity for
America and particularly for
the children of America,” if it
were not passed by the 9lSt
Congress.
“Nixon just came-to pus.
his welfare plan,” said-
17-year-old Tom Wood,
president of CYO in the New
York archdiocese. He was
disappointed that the
president would use delegates’
time to appeal for passage of
welfare reform measures then
facing the Senate and added,
“I thought we came here to
talk about children,.”
Wood also had some
criticism for the Church.
“Some of our hierarchy,” he
said, “are too wishy-washy.”
Apathy by the Church’s top
officials, he believes, will cost
it some members.
“We’re losing members and
just plain losing,” Sienkiewicz
echoed. Doug Scott, 25,
president of national CYO
young adult federation,
nodded agreement. At his
home base in Indianapolis,
Ind., he said, turnout at
meetings and to assist with
projects is “extremely poor.”
“People just don’t want to
get involved,” added John E.
McCarthy, Jr., son of t*he
executive director of
migration and refugee services,
United States Catholic
Conference. He said he was a
self-paid independent
delegate. Scott and
Sienkiewicz’s trips were
financed by CYO. Wood
received a subsidy from the
New York archdiocese.
Because of apathy and a
non-activist Church, they said
it is impossible to count on
implementing any ideas they
might glean from the massive
six-day Washington
conference.
But they said they thought
their presence at the
conference was “extremely
important” as a safeguard that
any measures agreed to by
delegates would not go against
the grain of Catholic teaching.
There was talk at the
conference that if proposals
on family planning, abortion
and sex education became
o f f ensi ve to Catholic
delegates, they possibly would
produce minority reports to
be submitted to the president.
Regardless ' of Catholic act
ivity at the conference,
the youths continued their
argument that One of the
Church’s major flaws is
non-activity. “It’s got to get
out and do something,” tHey
said.
When told about the
Campaign for Human
Development, Sienkiewicz
and the others said it is all well
and good to give money to
combat society’s ills, but the
Church needs to do more than
be a handout agent.
“If more people were aware
of what the Catholic Church is
not doing,” Sienkiewicz
claimed, “there would be
fewer and fewer Catholics.”
The Church, he. said, is not
taking active, positive roles.
“It’s not being heard as far as
social change and
development. It gets into
abortion, but not into racism.
Jt’s .not taken the stand it
should on integration.” (The
nation’s bishops for
generations have decried racial
injustice and prejudice.)
All the youths conveyed
dismay that “the priests who
are trying to do some good are
the ones who are dropping
out.” Once priests 'become
activists and communicators,
they are pressured out. “Their
openness,” he added, “is
oppressive because it posed a
threat to the established
institution of the Church.”
i Consequently, Sienkiewicz
said, young people seek “to
create a new Church.” Both
.the traditional and the new
•Church, he believes have to
exist to be relevant to both
older and younger
generations.
The Church as it is today
offers no ’‘positive
alternative” to youth, so
youth must find their own.
Young people, he explained,
see the Church as “a control
mechanism” and they don’t
like it. Scott added that youth
think the Church detracts
from individuality, that “it’s
an automatic Church” where
members automatically go to
Mass on Sunday because
they’re told “thou-shalt-not”
skip it.
Many young Catholics, the
four explained, “don’t think
it’s all that important to
attend Church every Sunday,
but the Church doesn’t offer
them a choice of ways to
pursue their religious interests.
Why do these four stay
with it as leaders of Catholic
youth? “Because there’s
hope,” they said in unison.
