The Bishop of Kerry has issued an apology after a controversial sermon by a priest saw over 30 parishioners walk out of mass.
Churchgoers attending a mass at St Mary's Church in Listowel over the weekend listened to Father Sean Sheehy condemn abortion, same-sex relationships and trans people as he called them a "mortal sin".
He also criticised Ireland's health system, HSE, for handing out free condoms to teenagers, claiming that it promoted promiscuity, CorkBeo reports.
