Boxing Day found me reading "The Bishop's Man" by Lyndon MacIntyre, winner of the Giller Prize.

Unlike a mystery, that I didn't wish to put down...the Bishop's Man I found myself forcing myself to take breaks from in order to savour the prose.  Though I wished to read through, find out what had happened in Honduras, discover what would occur with the main characters, I also did not wish to read it too quickly.

What is the most scary part of this is the admitted over riding protection of the Church over and above that of "the welfare of children and justice for victims".

Why does a "Christian" institution act diametrically opposite to what it preaches and what Jesus preached?  What does this tell us about its true nature?
