Breaking the silence

I want to offer my support and solidarity to my Redemptorist colleagues, Tony Flannery and Gerry Moloney.

Both have contributed over the years to the debate on issues relevant to church and society and it is now very unfortunate that both have been told to keep silent.

Renewal in the Church will only ever take place when we are open to dialogue and when the diversity of theological reflections are listened to and debated.

Silencing a few just won’t make the issues go away.
