    Let us remember: What hurts the victim most is not the cruelty of the oppressor, but the silence of the bystander. Concentration camp survivor Elie Wiesel Our “Catholic” Bishops’ Depraved and Calculated Indifference: One Devastating Result Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam Roman Catholic Faithful Spring 2003 Our Mission Statement Roman Catholic Faithful, Inc. (RCF) is a lay organization, with many religious members, dedicated to promoting orthodox Catholic teaching and fighting heterodoxy and corruption within the Catholic hierarchy. Our Philosophy While we accept the authority of the Holy Father and all bishops in union with him, we will not sit idly by, nor blindly follow, while many in the hierarchy allow the Holy Catholic Church to be torn apart and assaulted by the forces of Modernism, Syncretism, Heresy, and the gross immorality of some of its clergy. As parents and teachers, we will not allow our Catholic youth to be robbed of their faith or have their innocence destroyed in the name of “tolerance”, “ecumenism”, “diversity” or any other politically correct ideology of the day. We object to individuals or groups of individuals being given access to Catholic schools, churches, and Church property to promote any belief, teaching, or idea contrary to Catholic teaching as defined by two thousand years of Tradition and Church teaching. We expect every Catholic priest to follow the disciplines of the Catholic Church as he promised. We expect every bishop to do all he can to safeguard the souls of our children by exercising his authority to ensure proper teaching within Catholic schools and parish religion programs.

Maybe it was the federal government report that 2,342 children had been separated from 2,206 parents at the U.S.- Mexico border between May 5 and June 9. Maybe it was the now-famous audio recording of children crying after being separated from their parents. Or maybe it was the pictures of kids in cages. Whatever the reason, hundreds of American adults have called the Washington headquarters of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) seeking to provide foster care for the separated children. At first report on June 20, 300 calls had come in. And the calls keep coming. “We’re triaging the calls,” said Katie Kuennen, associate director for children’s services Julia Puscas, left, and Meghan Gehrich are young adult Catholics who love and live their Catholic faith.
