Church reels after Ireland's huge 'Yes' to gay marriage The once-dominant Catholic Church in Ireland tries to come to terms with an overwhelming vote in favour of gay marriage, saying it needed a "new language" with which to speak to people. Archbishop Diarmuid Martin of Dublin, one of the Church's most senior figures, told reporters after mass at the city's St Mary's Pro Cathedral that "there's a growing gap between Irish young people and the Church and there's a growing gap between the culture of Ireland that's developing and the Church."
