It is reported in today's Irish Times that the Vatican has advised Fr Sean Fagan that if any word of their latest action against him reaches the media he would be stripped of his priesthood.
Surely this is a case for the Euopean Court of Human Rights.
On the other hand, so many priests are forced to hide their sexuality, isn't it inevitable that so much is hidden and kept secret.
This can have nothing at all to do with Gospel values.
If, what is reported is true, then it is terrible.
Secrets have worked so well for the church in Ireland.
All those anonymous people and their sneering and secrets.
God love them.
