Over a half of Poles think that priests, due to the character of the organisation they serve, should not express publicly their private opinion on other than religion-related topics. Even more (almost two-thirds) believe that it is inappropriate for priests to criticise their hierarchs in public. In priest Lemanski case, however, those who heard about the issue more often took priest Lemanski’s side (27%) rather than archbishop Hoser’s (8%). Twenty eight percent of these interviewees think that both sides are partly right. The highest percentage does not know how to assess this situation (37%).

More coming soon in a report in Polish.
