Did you go to World Youth Day?

What did you think of the Pope’s apology to victims of sexual abuse - do you think it went far enough?

Did you go to World Youth Day? What did you make of it? What did you take away from it?

What did you think of Pope Benedict's messages throughout the week?

• He said that alongside the material prosperity of our society, there’s a quietly growing “spiritual desert” – that’s leaving many with an inner emptiness and “a quiet sense of despair.”

• He called for the delegates at World Youth Day to be better stewards of the earth’s resources.

• He rallied against substance abuse, sexual degradation on TV and online, and the exaltation of violence, saying they’re poisoning society.
