A frontpage story in today's Irish Times is headlined "". It reveals that a confidential letter has been sent to some priests in the diocese of Down and Connor detailing the qualities expected of a successor to Bishop Patrick Walsh, who is due to retire soon.

I know what you're thinking. Didn't Sunday Sequence break that story on March 25? And didn't Will & Testament host a debate about the story on this very site? In fact, isn't this the second time in a week that the Irish Times has run a story about Down and Connor that had already been covered on this blog?

Both stories are by Patsy McGarry, the religious affairs correspondent of the Irish Times. I'm sure it's just a coincidence. Or perhaps Patsy is a reader of Will & Testament?

Do they still list the skill to move priests who are suspected paedophiles around from parish to parish to keep them one step ahead of the law?
