    Actually when is the pope actually arriving in the country so to speak ?

    10.30 Saturday morning, so to speak.

    https://www.worldmeeting2018.ie/en/Pope-Francis/Papal-Itinerary

    That's a pretty hectic schedule there. Wonder where a Pope overnights when visitng?

    Ah that’s lame stuff in comparison to the Kate Fitzgerald incident. You’re relatively new here Cat, goo-gull “Kate Fitzgerald Communications Clinic” for an insight into how she runs her own shop so to speak, and the subsequent editing/censorship and one-sided coverage of same by her friends in de Meeja.

    Spent whole of very boring sounding Lahvlahn today reading an article I thus googulled, very disturbing stuff indeed.

    Probably Papal Nunciature in Dublin. Maybe RTE could do a brief Daniel. & Majella B&b type Series, Papa Francis stays at old Bridie Murphy’s B&B.

    Depending on what you read, it's likely just the tip (careful) of the iceberg.

    Was the show any good today?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,936 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    I can never quite tell which side of the fence Joe comes down on wrt the catholic church.

    I know he's involved in the odd show about them, and hes doing one of Francis' visit on RTE, so I assume he's an altar rail kisser?

    In a feature on him years ago he did mention that it at least crossed his mind at one time that he might consider the priesthood. I can easily imagine him in that role in a predominantly working class parish preaching to his flock.

    Some very unsavoury characters involved, if it were in Britain or Europe it would get the publicity the Kercher case got.

    I see him as spokesman (sorry, spokesperson) for the media and political establishment aka Official Ireland.

    The party line is as follows:

    The Catholic Church in Ireland was solely responsible for the lack of development of social infrastructure in the 20th Century.

    Going forward, The Catholic Church should exist in Ireland for Births, Deaths and Marriages and should keep its counsel on any social issues (apart from media darlings like Brian D’Arcy and Peter McVerry of course).

    Basically, Official Ireland wants a Church of Sweden type arrangement with the CC and any promotion of a traditional family (man and woman meet, get married, then raise kids and stay together) is a bit old fashioned at this stage.

    The effects of being robbed and impoverished by the British for centuries is to be minimized at all times (Sure didn’t the Queen come over and visit and speak da cupla focail and she’s a great woman altogether)

    The Rising and War of Independence can’t be presented to the public as they were; a Catholic, Conservative, Brits out campaign.
    Instead fringe groups (wurkers rights, wimmins rights, etc) are to be presented front and centre in commemorations.

    Dev is another useful bogeyman and his achievements should be minimized at all times.

    Despite solidifying our independence and helping us take our position among the nations of the world he banned a few books so he was basically a totalitarian dictator.

    Official Ireland reserves the rights to revise the above as circumstances require.
