YesSince the majority of young people are usually more attracted to lively, charismatic music which a lot of Pentecostal and Open bible churches seem to offer. Also, I think that there are better youth programmes in these other christian sects (btw I’m not sure) and they encourage a greater degree of interaction amongst their youth.

Yes. Simply because in my opinion the protestant churches place our young people in bondage with their strict outline of what is expected of themwhereas with our church youths don’t appreciate the fact that they are governed by a similar strict outline however, we are allowed the opportunity to express our freedom of choice.

Well yes, it seems so because their churches have alot of things for the youths and they take their faith much more seriously than some of us Catholics and if we all start to take our faith seriously we would have more youths staying in the Catholic faith. We should have more youth expos and stuff and get youths from all over to be more involved.

No. Because in Trinidad it isn’t very likely for young people to choose their faith, usually what they are born into they stick to it, whether they actively practice it or not. And with going to a Catholic school that’s kind of where your social circle is.
No, i don’t think so, it is just that the young Catholics are not showing commitment to the activities put up for them by the church. Moreover, the rampant criticisms from the protestant churches makes it difficult for a catholic youth to openly profess his/her faith in public, that is because they cannot explain what they do to all and sundry.
