The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.

Recently, Pope Francis apologized for the abuses done by missionaries within the residential school system run by Catholic staff for centuries in Canada. The abuse includes grave offenses such as familial separation, cultural genocide, systematic physical abuse by staff, childhood sexual abuse, and rampant medical negligence. According to many victims, even though they might no longer be around the abusive environment, the traumas remain, and they keep on haunting those who were abused. An official report from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, released in 2015, listed 139 residential schools, primarily Catholic-run, which operated until the 1970s. The report found that a total of 150,000 students were sent to these residential schools and over 3,200 children died. Some residential school survivors welcome the apology and do not hold anger towards Pope Francis himself, while others feel that the Vatican's actions do little to hold the abusers within the Catholic Church accountable.
