A new era close at hand.
(From Belfast Telegraph)
The Roman Catholic Primate Archbishop Sean Brady has said that "things will never be the same", following the Provisional IRA's announcement of an end to Republican violence.
In a keynote speech last night at an inter-community meeting in St Oliver Plunkett Church, Lenadoon, during the West Belfast Festival, the Archbishop said: "The IRA statement was potentially the most powerful, significant and welcome move towards genuine freedom to have emerged from any paramilitary organisation since the beginning of the troubles."
He said that he hoped the words of the IRA would be "followed through", and he added: "I hope others will respond with the same level of constructive thinking.
"Then, I am convinced, the way will be, quite literally, 'freed up' for new and previously unthinkable relationships to develop between people, parties and even religious leaders across this island and between this island and Britain."
Speaking on the theme 'What Freedom in Ireland Means To Me', the Archbishop said he believed that "Ireland today has never been closer to the freedom for which she has yearned for so long.
"A new era of peaceful and fruitful progress between her diverse people and with her nearest neighbours is very close at hand. I am utterly convinced of that."
