| Cardinal Sean Brady Facing 'challenging time' |
Cardinal Sean Brady has said he is aware of this morning's opinion poll finding that three out of four adults in the Republic think he should resign.
But the Catholic Primate of All Ireland also expressed confidence that he had the prayers and support of many people as he continued his work in renewing faith and structures in the Church at what he termed 'this challenging time'.
The Cardinal was responding to a query from RTE News about his unpopularity revealed in the latest set of results of last week's Ipsos/MRBI survey.
Pollsters interviewed a representative sample of 1,000 voters.
Last month Dr Brady said he was determined to remain in office after reflecting for over two months on revelations that he had sworn two teenage victims of the paedophile priest, Brendan Smyth, to secrecy after they gave evidence to a church tribunal in which he participated in 1975.
