An elderly woman in the west of Ireland commented to a friend at the weekend that she was going to stop her donation to TrĂ³caire because she had heard that the NGO supported abortion.
Of course it is not true that the NGO supports abortion.
TrĂ³caire CEO Justin Kilcullen has challenged Alive to withdraw what it said about the organisation.
Is it appropriate that the free sheet Alive be available in churches? There is also need for a far greater disassociation of the Irish Dominicans from the free sheet.
If Alive and similar newspapers/free sheets were anyway left wing in their ideology, church authorities would long ago have cried stop.
When is a newspaper allowed call itself 'Catholic'?
