Letter: `Paedophile art'

IN GENERAL I agree with Eamon Duffy about the private lives of artists. However, the church is currently struggling to come to terms with a recent history of denial of paedophilia within its ranks. It is not helpful to healing and reconciliation if the hierarchy is perceived to be defending artefacts rather than supporting the human victims. In the circumstances I think the Stations of the Cross should be removed.
