At the time of Ireland's closure of its Vatican embassy, I remarked to several people that Enda Kenny and his government would come to regret it. 'It will come back and bite them', I said. 'They underestimate the residual loyalty of Ireland to the faith, and are simply playing to those they think are in the gallery.'
I considered blogging upon it, but decided not to; besides, those days before Christmas were simply too busy and I didn't do much blogging at all.
I want to write some more on Ireland, and will do so soon. In the meantime, you can read the account here, thanks to Fr Z.
Are you planning on writing again on the Irish Church and its historical relationship with the liturgical movement? As someone who has considerable research experience on this topic I found many of the assertions in your last '500' series highly contestable, to say the least. If you are doing so this time again, could you please give us a list of the sources you have consulted, or else provide references to support your claims? It would be much appreciated, thanks.
