On the one hand Pope Francis calls for simplicity and seems not to approve of titles, yet an Irish bishop refused a parish priest to call himself Fr Joe Soap in the diocesan directory, instead he must be known as Very Reverend Joe Soap.
A funny old church.
It would be interesting to know the relationship there is between the pope and his papal nuncios. Does he have a direct input into their appointments? Is it easy for him to remove nuncios from their posts?
