Thu 12 Dec 2009Pressure on three bishops as Moriarty offers resignation
THE ANNOUNCEMENT yesterday by Bishop James Moriarty that he has offered his resignation to Pope Benedict will put further pressure on the three other serving bishops also mentioned in the Murphy report to do likewise.
One of those bishops, Dublin Auxiliary Bishop Éamonn Walsh, was appointed in April 1990, over a year before Bishop Moriarty was appointed a Dublin auxiliary bishop in September 1991.
