Brendan Hoban: Varadkar was different from most politicians
April 12 2024
Daithi O'Muirneachain
Pat Savage points out correctly that abortion is one of the downsides of Varadkar's term in office, to which others could be added. Politically, civil partnership for same sex couples may be acceptable but Varadkar gave us same sex marriage and all that that portends. In his term of office democracy came under attack, well stated by Rory Fitzgerald "Minority interests often seem to have more influence than those of the majority, which is precisely contrary to democratic principles" (The Irish Catholic, 25 january 2024). However, we do owe him our appreciation for his achievements, including dealing with Brexit and Covid. This could be an example of 'The Curate's Egg'.

New Vatican document lists ‘grave violations’ of human dignity
April 8 2024
Sean O’Conaill
Thanks Soline. Those articles are most helpful, especially the second. Full acceptance of how anyone may self-identify is maybe not always easy if one’s experience is as limited as my own, but we need to rise to this challenge if the church is to be the ‘field hospital’ that Pope Francis envisages. That hormones in gestation could cause a mismatch between one’s assigned sexuality and one’s brain is news to me. That answers the question re whether gender dysphoria, strictly speaking, is ‘socially constructed’. The answer is no.

Brendan Hoban: Varadkar was different from most politicians

Pat Savage
"What people know and what history in time will no doubt record is that Leo Varadkar was a substantial figure in the twenty or so years he spent in politics. He was different." Yes, all very valid points made Father but let's not ignore the fact he led a campaign to introduce abortion into Ireland and to further extinguish the rights of the mother in the most recent referendum campaign. On a personal note, I am sure, like others, he is a gentleman, but on a political level certainly, if you're struggling, one might have a different view point.
