Facebook has banned a post advertising a new book from the monks at Glenstal Abbey in Co Limerick because of nudity in illustrations of the Good Thief crucified with Christ, and of the Archangel Michael.

The social network stated the images breached their policies.

We were joined by Gary O’Sullivan from Columba Books, the publishers of the book in question, ‘Glenstal Abbey Through the Seasons’.
