Years ago I attended a service w/ a Catholic priest who had Catholics apologize to non-Catholics for historical wrongs committed by the Church. I found it very moving & have been proud to do something similar regarding blacks & Native Americans in America. Nothing silly about it.

Catholics living today didn't participate in the Inquisition, either! And this isn't about guilt, it's about responsibility. There are psychological and emotional scars that affect whole groups of people and in the 21st Century we have a deeper understanding of historical trauma.
