Petition calling for the resignation of Cardinal Sean Brady

    With so much uncertainty about the future, probably more than at any other time in our history, Ireland requires leadership of the highest moral level from both political and spiritual leaders. In allowing pedophile, Fr. Brendan Smyth, to remain at large and repeatedly abuse children and not inform parents or relevant authorities of the horrendous dangers, Cardinal Sean Brady, Primate of All Ireland, has failed to provide such leadership, has let people down and should voluntarily resign his position immediately.

    I couldn't give a crap about him holding a position in the church, he should be answering to the law.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Great idea. Force him to resign, they can then move him to the next parish over.

    Sure, they're a great bunch of lads in the clergy !!

    No. The organization is a defunct rotten anachronism. The heap is the problem. Not the puppet sitting on top of the heap.

    IMHO...

    Better course of action would be shutting the whole corrupt and disgusting organisation down.

    Start a new church to practice your religion away from all these sick ignorant bastards. I cant believe anyone is still associating themselves with the Roman Catholic Church considering what has been unearthed in the last 10-15 years.

    Bars?

    He should be surgically attached to a sexually aggressive bear, and made tour the towns and villages of Ireland whilst apologising to us all through the medium of experimental modern dance.
