Irish Primate Backs Embattled Bishop against Calls for Resignation Catholic Culture January 14, 2009 http://www.catholicculture.org/news/headlines/index.cfm?storyid=1650 "There is no pastoral issue more critical for the Church in Ireland today than to ensure the right attitudes and the right procedures are in place to safeguard children," said that Primate of All Ireland in a January 13 address. But while he insisted that "there is absolutely no room for complacency" on the issue, Cardinal Sean Brady of Armagh told reporters that he did not think Cloyne's Bishop John Magee should resign in the wake of revelations that his diocese mishandled sex-abuse reports. "I know trust has been damaged," the cardinal said; "but trust can be restored." |
