The pin-up names for the institutional Catholic Church in Ireland include Breda O'Brien, John Waters, Lucinda Creighton, RonĂ¡n Mullen.
What is it about the Catholic Church that always seems to make it come down on the side of the right wing and reactionary forces?
Has it something to do with an absence of any sort of original thinking? Is it that the church finds comfort in carrying out a conversation with those with whom it feels it agrees?
Maybe the Irish Church is many steps behind Pope Francis. It would appear to be so.
