Friday's Joe Finnegan Show panel was dominated by discussion about the Pope's visit to Ireland, especially with 45,000 people descending on nearby Knock on Sunday.
But much of the commentary in the days leading up to his arrival has centred on the sex-abuse scandals that have rocked the Church in recent decades.
This issue was passionately discussed by our panel, comprising local Independent MEPs Marian Harkin and Luke 'Ming' Flanagan, along with Síona Cahill, the president of the Union of Students of Ireland.
