Never a word on divinity and resurrection

Is it just the world or is it something to do with the church?

Think of all the issues about which the church is in the news? Priests are in trouble for discussing women priests, married priests.

Other issues about which the church has definite views: contraception, homosexuality, divorce, abortion, IVF, stem research.

Every one of these topics is linked to sexuality.

The church is in great difficulty over its cover up in the area of clerical child sex abuse.

It has a real issue with closet gay priests.

When it comes to questions about the divinity of Christ, the resurrection, there is not a whisper.

Okay, the occasional priest might make the headlines for stealing money but seldom is there a Vatican word admonishing priests for speaking out or not speaking out on matters of justice and honesty.

A church that has caring for the marginalised as a significant part of its mission seems to have one of its central pillars wrapped around an obsession with all matters concering sex.

Strange.
