Very sad story. But saying it’s the government’s job, or a political party’s job to fix it is misguided. Society itself has lost its soul. We chose to abandon God. We chose to drive him out of schools and the public square. And with it went the basics-- Love you neighbor as yourself. Do unto others as you would have done to you. You are your brother’s keeper. Had Mike belonged to a loving church, he would have found a family who cared for him. And knowing that love, he could have sorted out his life better.
there are churches and then there are churches. Unfortunately the church’s I attended as a child, teen were into how much money they could get from the parishioners, and had a severe problem with priests sexually abusing a wide range of children. No one was prosecuted, the victims, now adults don’t turn to the church. The church didn’t build a community within the parish or within the community. I know a lot of you have a very positive opinions and faith in the church of your flavor. Some of us will never accept the church again in our lives.

What you unfortunately experienced was bad people in a church. But don’t blame Christianity as a whole.
