text: Scandal??  Perish the thought!  The Church must not have a scandal.  Scandal should be avoided by any means necessary, as Jesus repeatedly told his followers.  The Infallible Church has deemed Scandal an impermissible state of affairs.  Perhaps the Irish Bishops should threaten him with excommunication for  threatening this Scandal, the same way they threatened the victims and parents of predatory priests who might cause scandal by speaking out about the crimes of the priests.  I, for one, agree with you and certainly disagree with those who claim the Irish Catholic Church is so covered in its own filth that it cannot even pretend to have the moral authority to criticize this priest saying mass in public.
