Over the years, Fr Joe Dunn has been involved in the production of 350 films in 75 countries, mainly on Church-related topics. In the course of this work, he has had to face up to and think carefully about most of the major issues facing the Chruch in the world today, often with the input of interesting and well-informed people from all walks of life. This book offers his sometimes controversial conclusions on a wide range of those issues, including Pope John Paul II and leadership in the Church, the making of bishops, celibacy, women in the Church, birth control, war and violence, divisions in the Church, Roman centralism and Vatican politics.

Fr. Joe Dunn's excellent critique of the Catholic Church,
By Paddy Ferry "PJFerry" (Keadue, Edinburgh) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: No Lions in the Hierarchy: An Anthology of Sorts (Paperback)
Fr.Joe Dunn spent many years travelling the world with his television crew producing the religious affairs program "Radhairc" for RTE, the Irish State broadcasting company. The program, which means "view" or "vision" in Irish Gaeilge, looked at many aspects of Catholic Church doctrine and practice in many parts of the world. This excellent book, "No Lions in the Hierarchy" and his second book,"No Vipers in the Vatican" are based on Fr. Joe's experiences of the Church over many years, looking at many of the issues that affect our Church and humankind in general. The book is a must for anyone wishing to understand how the Catholic Church really works, written by loyal servant of the Church yet someone who is also able to take an open-minded and balanced view.
