Prager Zeitung - Czechy | Piątek, 30. Styczeń 2009

The Czechs and Catholicism

Pope Benedict XVI intends to visit the Czech Republic this year. The German-language Prager Zeitung reminds readers that the Czech Republic is the only country of the former East Bloc which has yet to sign a framework agreement with the Vatican. "This is primarily due to the open question of reparations for Church property confiscated by the communists. But the Pope's visit will hardly be able to change much regarding this complex issue. ... The Catholic Church simply lacks the necessary popular support for such an undertaking. More than fifty percent of the Czech population do not have any religious affiliation, and Catholics represent only a small minority. ... If the Pope wants to improve things he would do better to avoid putting too much emphasis on the question of reparations. ... But the Vatican could score a major victory if Benedict succeeded in building trust among Czechs and sparking enthusiasm for the Catholic faith."
