Brendan Hoban in the current edition of Studies gives an honest assessment of the current state of the Church in Ireland and says “that ongoing change is now a permanent reality for the Catholic Church”.

Twitter has its uses but tends to foster superficial knee-jerks rather than either appreciation or argument.
