On the Marian Finucane Show today Fr Oliver Brennan was interviewed about his ordeal of having been accused in the wrong of sexual abuse.
He came across as a wonderful man, forgiving too.
He was too kind to say it, maybe too big too, but listening to every word of the interview it was alarmingy clear of the bungling behaviour of the hierarchical church.
But he did compare the professionalism and kindness of the PSNI to the poor behaviour of the church.
So far the church has not apologised to him.
Fr Brennan spoke highly of how the Association of Catholic Priests supported and helped him.
He said at first he was very bitter towards the church but said fortunatey he no longer feels bitter.
The late Dominican John O'Gorman always maintained that the biggest issue with the Catholic Church was its ineptness and total inefficiency.
