Brendan Smyth being led away from court, 1994. A defining moment in the relationship between the Irish people and the Catholic church. Looking into those eyes of madness on every screen and newspaper back then certainly did some damage to my - by then already fairly fragile - faith.
It also occured to me that since I didn't do an entry for seven deadly sins then this'd do a double shift as lust...if ever there was a man whose lust destroyed him, not to mention his victims, it was aul' Reverend Brendan.
