released by the broadcaster reads:"RTÉ recognises that matters which can cause offence naturally differ from person to person, within comedy and satire in particular.
"Having reviewed the feedback and complaints received up to this point, RTÉ wishes to apologise to those who were offended by the segment. "The formal complaints received by RTÉ are being entered into our complaints system and will be responded to in accordance with the relevant statutory process." Archbishop Eamon Martin took to Twitter to complain about the sketch which he said"accuses God of rape".
He said:"This outrageous clip should be removed immediately and denounced by all people of goodwill."
Tell Eamon Martin his own ppl spent enough years raping and murdering ppl. Why should anyone have to apologise to the Catholic Church. We are still waiting on them to apologise to all the mothers in their run babies homes.
Wow bit close to the bone for a Bishop is it? U know because they have such a great record with sexual assault...
Can't wait to see RTE's sketch on another religion / God if this is how they operate....in the interest of fairness, can't just pick on the one religion now can they....
