"Travesty in Toowoomba" relates to the "firing " of the Australian Bishop of Toowoomba.
It is not entirely clear why he was "fired" but it appears to relate to his support for the possibility
of married priests and woman priests in a pastoral letter in 2006. 2 subsequent enquiries have found that
he was denied natural justice. If the Catholic church cannot be just to it's "employees", how can it effectively promote Christ's love into the world?
Ta for your insight and for bringing this to more attention. No doubt this was painted before Benedict's resignation and so the skeletal fingers seem to have become foretelling in a sense. IT would be good if there were more bishops who spke as the Bishop of Toowoomba did.
