    Issue 8. Only a small peice along the right side.

    I dived straight into the "god saved me from the airplane crash piece" in that issue, ignoring anything else. Thanks.

    'Shut up, yez liberal whingers yez'

    "A HIGH-profile Irish Dominican has hit out at the liberal Association of Catholic Priests accusing it of contributing to the vocations problem.

    Fr Brian McKevitt, editor of the conservative 'Alive' newspaper, described the priests' association as "a bunch of ageing, disillusioned priests who seem to be always whingeing about what they see as the failings of the Church".Fr McKevitt was responding to the latest appeal from the Association of Catholic Priests (ACP) to Irish bishops to add their voice to the "growing chorus now accepting the need for a married as well as a celibate priesthood" in the Catholic Church.

    As opposed to Mr McKevitt who's an ageing, disillusioned priest who seems to be always whingeing on about what he sees as the failings of other people.

    Irony fail.

    Brian McKevitt on The Last Word. He discusses the war on cohabitation at around 12 minute mark. Rambles on about gay marriage too.... He reminds me of Fr Stone in Father ted.
