Today's Irish Independent caries a story on Vatican silence on the appointment of new bishops in Ireland.
A spokesman for the Catholic Communications Office said: "It is the sole decision of the Holy Father when a new bishop will be appointed."
This type of language is not helpful. One is forced to draw parallels between the nonsense of what we hear about Kim Jong-un and the pope.
Are people asked to believe that the pope singularly knows every priest in the world?
It really is silly and time the church stopped speaking this crazy language.
