'I wonder how long before there's a liberal Bishop Eamonn Casey moment?'

Has the liberal commentariat taken over a space once occupied by the Catholic Church in Ireland, when it comes to deciding what's acceptable and what's not in Irish public discourse?
It's arguable, reckons Brendan O'Connor.
"Look, I'm liberal myself. But at the same time they're like the Church these days. And I think, if the interesting thing to do 20 years ago, 10 years ago was to kind-of call out the church on things, I think in a way the interesting thing now is to start calling out the liberals."
"But I wonder how long before there's a liberal Bishop Eamon Casey moment and suddenly the scales fall from their eyes - the liberals are only humans too, you know what I mean?" jrnl.ie/3291504
