It may well be a problem of this blogger but it seems impossible to log on to the home page of the Irish Dominicans at present.
The home page of the Dominican Order has the following as an opening paragraph.
"Dominicans preach in churches and on the street, in universities and in mass media to the faithful as well as dissidents; we break open Scripture to different audiences and pursue works of justice and peace; we give retreats to nuns, visit the sick, console, listen, confess, forgive, and ultimately desire to go as far as need be to preach the Word of God to those who do not yet know it or need to hear it."
If you are a 'dissident' can you not be a member of the 'faithful'? It seems an odd idea. Obviously the word is being used in the narrower sense as opposed to the now more commonly accepted meaning of the word - someone who dissents from the opinion of the majority.
It seems difficult to navigate around the website of the Dominican Order.

I've no problem getting to the site, but it seems very sensitive to many browsers. It's a very odd looking site, doesn't really give the impression that it's for a religious order, never mind the Dominicans, and is quite clearly managed by old aged pensioners. Even the welcoming video is weird. Does he have alzheimer's?
How do you rate the new site in comparison with the previous incarnation?
Again, it is a pity people remain anonymous.
I do not know who is the manager of the site.
It is not possible for this blogger to gain access to the Irish Dominican website. The worlwide site is, at least, confusing.
In answer to Michele, I'm confused.
