Sinead O’Connor is odd but she led the way on child abuse by priests
THERE has been a lot of bad news
around this month: killings, deadly cyclones, more beheadings and
suicide bombers, drive-by shootings, the loss of Flight 4U 9525 and,
closer to home, Adelaide’s Archbishop Philip Wilson being charged with
concealing abuse committed by paedophile rapist Father Jim Fletcher.
But there it was, hidden away — a snippet of good news. A kernel of
delight to make your day, to bring a smile and reassure us that the
tabernacle of God is among men and that He is looking over us.
