Are all 'elites' similar? Probably.
The behaviour of the Vatican at present inclines one to say yes.
Fr Brian D'Arcy is not a theological scholar. He is a priest and journalist, who speaks on relevant topics.
If the media are correct in what is being said, then it simply copperfastens what Suzanne Moore says in yesterday's Guardian.
The 'posh boys' as Conservative MP Dorries calls Cameron and Osborne.
Is it a suitable term for the 'church elite'?
Hardly, in some respects there might be an inaccuracy about such a term when referring to memebrs of the clerical 'elite'.
One does not need to be a theology scholar to observe there is something spectacularly 'different' about so many of the 'Vatican elite'.
