The Irish Catholic Church


Stifled by weight of Rome's pomp, power and stubborn patriarchy


"The Irish Church seems to be mobilising itself for a schismatic war, writes Carol Hunt "
Or, some people may be making more of this than necessary.

While I admit that Catholicism has had a different, and somewhat divergent, history in Ireland, we are in the 21st Century. I'm not sure that one can apply the 'ancient ways' to current situations...
