The man in the bracelets

At a time such as this when public indignation is high it may well be difficult to say something measured and meaningful. Maybe that is not at all the case.

Today's Irish Times carries articles by Fintan O'Toole, Kevin O'Connor, Tony Flannery and Elaine Byrne, plus many other news items and comments on the Ryan Report.

Hopefully every member of the Irish hierarchical church will read Kevin O'Connor. They might even consider inviting him to talk to their communities, congregations and orders. They might even begin a worthwhile and true dialogue among themselves. Is that possible?

As to comments in the media re no comment from Fr Sean Healy, is it not the case that Fr Healy's 'branch' of Cori has 'broken away' from the main Cori body?

And what is waiting for us in the Dublin Report?

I'm not sure if I understand what you are referring to here. Would you care to elaborate?
