The front page of the current issue of The Irish Catholic carries a story about the transfer of land from a religious order to the State.
In the article Irish Dominican priest Kevin O'Reilly is quoted.
His comments are unfortunate and regrettable and I as an Irish Dominican wish to disassociate myself from his views and opinions.
The Irish Sisters of Charity have given great service to Irish people and indeed continue to do so.
Women have suffered much at the hands of men. Indeed, most times priests are not fit to tie the shoes of religious sisters.
Count the number of maginalised and less well-off Irish people the Sisters have supported over generations.
Also, the headline on the story sounds slightly dramatic. A recently ordained priest 'threatening' the Vatican...
A lesson in arrogance and pomposity.
The Irish Catholic has been most unkind to the Irish Sisters of Charity. And the Irish Sisters of Charity would question the accuracy of some of the comments in the newspaper.
