    Are Bertie Ahern and Michael Woods in Opus Dei

    Was the shadowy hand of Opus Dei involved in the deal that sees the Irish Taxpayer lumbered with a bill of over 1 billion euros for abuse by members of the Catholic Church.

    Probably, but dont forget to give credit to The Knights of Columbanus.

    Charlie Haughey's Secretary-General at the D/Taoiseach was a well-known Knight. Fact.

    Whatever about either Michael Woods or Bertie Aherns religious convictions, this was one of the most rotten deals ever perpetrated on behalf of the Irish people - and I say that as a Fianna Fáil supporter

    Highly unlikely that Bertie or Woods are Opus Dei. However, strongly suspect that both of them, along with Dermot Ahern, are Knights of Columbanus, a far more secretive organisation than Opus Dei.
