Today we hear that the Irish bishops have been in disagreement with one of the papal visitators regarding the child sex abuse scandal in Ireland.
Some weeks ago we heard that the Roman visitators requested that new doors be placed in Maynooth.
And most likely there will never be a word about the real causes of the scandal and the cover up.
If the institutional church were really intent in examining the underlying causes of all that has happened, by this stage far more incisive questions would have been asked.
No doubt many of the visitators are genuine and good people but is that enough? Doubtful.
