Vatican 'snubbed Ireland church abuse inquiry'

[Yellow_Belle]

It did. That is my opinion. I freely admit I could be biased in that I am Catholic. I will leave you to your opinion.

Then, as Catholics, we will have to agree to disagree on whether in this matter the Vatican acted as a state or a church.

The Nuncio, at least, has had second thoughts…

The Papal Nuncio to Ireland, Archbishop Giuseppe Leanza, has said the findings of the Murphy Commission have shocked and dismayed the Vatican.

The Nuncio made his comments following a 45-minute meeting with the Minister for Foreign Affairs in Dublin this morning.

Micheál Martin requested the meeting with Archbishop Leanza in the wake of the latest report into the Catholic Church’s handling of clerical child abuse in the Dublin Archdiocese.

The Papal Nuncio admitted during the meeting that he should have responded to a letter from the commission formally.

Unfortunately, the entire Church in Ireland is guilty in this horrible affair.

The issue seems to get farther and farther from the victims and the focus is on the survival of the Church instead. There will be no quick or sudden justice here Im afraid.

If Jesus were to suddenly appear in the Vatican, he would quickly be lining up the millstones for all the gulity parties.
