A priest in Ireland in his sermon on Sunday said anyone who did not believe in God was a fool.
Is there any mechanism in the Catholic Church whereby a priest can be handed his P45 for unprofessional behaviour?

He is clearly a bigger fool if he believes that.
Condemned out of his own mouth.
Of course that's the way we were brought up. Not only did you have to believe in God, but in a very specific tripartite unitary God. Otherwise you were a heretic, if you never believed, or an apostate, if you had and now didnt.
All very neatly tied up.
I'm reading Seán Fagan at the moment. A man after my own heart. His writing shows that God, if there is a God, must have a sense of humour. If that is so He is probably breaking his sides laughing at the other fellow.
Psalm 53:1
The fool says in his heart "there is no god."
Bible say anything about anonymity?
Try Matthew 6:3. Attacking the messenger is no substitute for responding to the message. Do you seriously suggest that a preacher should be disciplined for stating a biblical truth?
