I wouldn’t presume to tell the Pope how he should go about his business or to advise the Vatican on matters theological.
But I do know that the censuring of Fr Brian D’Arcy the latest Irish priest to be disciplined by Rome (there are now six in total) is not the Church’s savviest move.
And that’s because I know Brian D’Arcy to be one of the finest, most honourable men to walk the planet.
He is a priest who totally, utterly connects with the people he serves. He understands life as it really is — not how church leaders might like it to be.
