Irish church is no victim

A priest preaching at Mass today spoke how the Irish church is being pilloried re the clerical child sex abuse. He then went on to talk about how Jesus was treated.

One could interpret that he was comparing the Irish church with Jesus.

It's time the church stopped doing this.

The hierarchical Irish church is no victim.

It seems many Irish priests have still not got the message. Some weeks ago an Irish bishop spoke similar words.

It is dishonest and disingenuous.
