the cover ups have served to erode the moral authority of the catholic church. francis said that he shares the shame and pain of the church's failure to tackle abuse here's more. pope francis arrived in dublin knowing the first papal visit to ireland in nearly forty years would be overshadowed by the scandal over sex abuse by predatory priests the very presence of the pope would once have electrified the whole country but social changes and the sex revelations mean the atmosphere is now much more muted the ceremonial greeting from martin's president michael higgins then it was down to business pope francis was forthright church members who should have protected young people had instead abused them. the fundamental the failure of church authorities bishops religious leaders priests and others to adequately address these repugnant crimes with he has rightly led to

outrage juice them in the sushi and it remains a source of pain and shame for the catholic community. but. i share in feeling that pain and shame and evil with decent humane. protesters gathered in central dublin in solidarity with victims of clerical abuse there is a great momentum that is being led out of ireland it all really challenging the churches behavior and challenging the corruption of trust will not be returned with a proper population or simply what will probably say to the problem. to be. despite the sex abuse scandal rocking the catholic church the pontiff still has huge support dubliners lined the streets to give the pope. one enthusiastic

welcome as he was driven to mary's cathedral to bless newlywed couple. for a closer look at the pope's visit to dublin i'm joined in the studio now by a reporter at william glucose so william there's been quite a great quite a lot of criticism against the pope especially in connection with the issue of clerical abuse what have the pope's critics in ireland been saying now especially online there they're saying no they're saying nope there's actually a hashtag called say nope to the pope which sounds funny but of course is deadly serious that many are using to discuss their outrage at the catholic church and the pope's visit you can see an irish rugby writer he put it very bluntly in this tweet he said i wish every weekend could be ireland winning the grand slam on st patrick's day and twickenham which is a major rugby stadium in england instead this weekend we have to host the leader of the world's largest pedophile ring hash tag say no to the pope definitely not

beating around the bush with such a tweet but it must be said of course the pope has been outspoken on this issue he's called. the crimes of his of his own repugnant and the lack of action is shameful which is not enough for many we have the executive director of amnesty ireland who is organizing a protest on this very issue tomorrow in dublin he's heavily criticized the pope especially with this tweet where he says this seems to me to be a shameful deflection of responsibility on the part of the pope and it insult the faithful catholics who have no reason to feel shame because the crimes of the vatican and the institutional church so people like him want to see concrete consequences both in the legal and a religious sense all right so a lot of focus on the issue of child sex abuse scandal within the church what other issues are people in ireland talking about as the pope visits the list is long the abuse issue is the biggest blight on the pope's visit but also for example women and the analogy between people their role in the catholic church. while the pope is

in dublin you have the churches meeting the world meeting of families happening a once every three year convention happening and double at the same time and they've actually denied the request of a couple catholic l.g.b. t. groups from participating they've cited space and logistical issues so in response a one rainbow choir used the power of song to protest by gathering outside we can see here outside the convention location singing the same song. so speaking of families as many as thirteen hundred families living in emergency shelters in dublin even maybe face the prospect of having to be sent out of dublin while the pope is there which many people see as a grave contradiction of church values and state priorities especially when you look at the cost of this is that this is costing up to thirty two million euros it might be for this thirty six hour visit of the pope twenty million of which is

going to be covered by the church but the rest most likely the city or the state so add to the usual delays and disruptions that such a visit causes to any city and is a lot for people in dublin to be unhappy about keep in mind is a country that has been rapidly moving away from its conservative catholic underpinnings and just last for years all right so some colorful protest in dublin as well well you know glucose start to do a reporter many thanks indeed. and now to some of the other stories making news around the world and german chancellor angela merkel has called for a stronger economic ties with azerbaijan following a meeting with president ilham aliyev the two leaders discussed expanding a gas pipeline to southern europe and the human rights situation in the former soviet republic as a by john is merkel's last stop of the three day tour which also included georgia and our medium. russian opposition leader oh that's saying a volley has been arrested outside his home in moscow. who's been jailed several
