Archbishop says Irish Catholicism at 'breaking point' over child abuse scandals...

Irish Catholicism is at "breaking point" over the child sex abuse scandals involving the clergy, the leader of Ireland's largest Catholic diocese will say on Sunday.

The archbishop of Dublin, Diarmuid Martin, will also warn that the paedophile priest controversy is far from over for the Irish church.

In a frank admission of the church's failings on American primetime TV , Martin will say: "There's a real danger today of people saying: 'the child abuse scandal is over, let's bury it, let's move on'.

"It isn't over. Child protection and the protection of children is something which will go on for the rest of our lives and into the future because the problems are there." Full story...
