Two interesting articles in today's Irish Times.
Fintan O'Toole argues that excessive wealth at the top carries a heavy price tag for the rest of us.
He writes, 'The sense of being out of the loop leads to political disengagement by those at the bottom.' A sentiment that could be so well applied within the church!
Bishop Richard Clarke writes an article on ecumenism.
The annual week of prayer for Christian unity begins on Friday. Hopefully the week will be an occasion for all of us to focus our minds on the topic.
