An Irish newspaper is reporting that "As the countdown begins to the forthcoming Vatican meeting between Pope Benedict, senior Curia figures and the Irish bishops, Vatican insiders have suggested the Holy See has been alarmed by recent signs of internecine strife within the Irish hierarchy." The paper claims that the Holy See "has been confused and alarmed by apparent factional in-fighting among the hierarchy" and claims that Pope Benedict's forthcoming pastoral letter to the Irish may be held off until after the meeting.
