An ineresting 'discussion' in this week's Irish Catholic between the Archbishop of Dublin Diarmuid Martin and the Vocations Director of the Irish Dominicans, Gerard Dunne.
At face value it's an interesting debate. But there will not be a word about the sub-plot. And in that context, it would seem that Diarmuid Martin did, ever so slightly, refer to the 'sub-plot.
And the sub-plot is huge. If the truth were told, it could be a fabulous argument and one hell of a row.
And in the same paper, Professor Patricia Casey asks the Archbishop of Dublin to apologise for his comments at the MacGill Summer School for his comments about those men presneting themselves for priesthood.
Are we now to apologise for our opinions? Maybe.
A good discussion on those in 'charge' of priestly formation would surely be a far more necessary and beneficial exercie.
Interesting times.
