Archbishop Diarmuid Martin 
A top Vatican cardinal has accused Dublin’s Archbishop Diarmuid Martin of excessive negativity and in focusing too much on the Church’s failures.
Speaking at the Autumn conference of the Association of Leaders of Missionaries and Religious of Ireland (AMRI) in Dublin, Cardinal Peter Turkson, who heads the Holy See’s Dicastery for the Promotion of Integral Human Development, said the Church needs to “find a way of exiting” the abuse scandals.
At 2012’s International Eucharistic Conference in Dublin, he said, it seemed as though Archbishop Martin gave an apology at every event. “At one point I thought it was too much. I thought he was making this huge cloud hang over everything,” he said.
