    Hi
    I know two people corrupting young kids. Spreading there racist, homophobic bull****.
    Parents are complaining but feel helpless.
    I am a single person with no access to kids. I mean typical single man who avoids kids. I hang around single adults who never married or might in the future.
    Is it worth telling a Priest or authority figure.

    The priest might "corrupt " them more.

    Is the priest not the one corrupting the kids?

    Yeah go to the local parish priest OP no harm will come of it. It can only help the situation.

    Call in the the local cop shop, they will know what to do.

    Let their parents deal with it.

    If they don't know how to and need help then by all means help.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,325 ✭✭✭munster87


    You should go straight to the archbishop

    Really? There are countless priests in this country that have sacrificed and devoted there lives to the people of their community.
    Have a thought for these men before you post something like that again in hopes for cheap whorish thanks on here.

    Do not listen to this man. He supports 11 year old boys gyrating in gay bars at 4am while adults throw dollars at them. Also admits he's a creep.
    I think option C would be the most accurate representation of me nothing wrong with being a creep as long as you don't engage in any illegal behaviour or condone any illegal activity.

    He did. That’s why he used the word “might corrupt " them, anybody else would have said “will”

    Plenty of them who raped and sexually assaulted children over the years also but sure you might just be "forgetful"...

    Clearly some seriously thick posters on here responding to the bait in the opening post.

    Why not? No harm in asking him advice if you have no one else.

    Yes speak to an authority figure. What position are they in relation to the children. How do they have this opportunity?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,102 ✭✭✭greencap


    Depends.
    How strong is his prayer rating?

    You'd need at least +5 our father for this.

    Nothing a good mass (ideally a Novena) wont fix.

    Or is it just the Catholics youre after?

    If this is genuine (and I'd be very doubtful) the OP needs to call Tusla.

    I'm playing Devil's advocate here, but, that's a bit dumb

    To follow your logic, it would be lay Catholics (as most of us would be) molesting children and not just the ordained ones


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,422 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    It's cool to attack the church at every turn these days, to generalise about priests is ok too. Just don't generalise about travellers or non-nationals because that's racist.
    I'm not religious personally but I don't hate religion, I just choose not to believe in it. I don't go around running it down or talking trash about priests who have not been charged or found guilty of anything.
    I'm not cool though, even though that makes me happy.

    Plenty of them didn't either. But sure you might just want to forget this.

    That's the thing though, you can never be sure

    It's like when you're abroad where there is rabies

    Stray dog comes towards you and you don't know any better, you don't go pet it and let it near you

    There's plenty on here spreading racist, homophobic bull. It's part of life and kids need to learn how to tune this rubbish out.

    Priest might have good intentions but nothing he can do. Kids parents are the ones to tell

    As a parent, though my children are adults now, if this were my kids when they were young, I wouldn't feel helpless.
    I'd make sure no fcuker would get away with that s**t if I knew it was going on with mine.
    Priest is helpless and useless, parents need to take control here if your post is genuine and stop this escalating.

    This place is comical, absolutely hilarious...

    Tell the priest, he'll sort them out.

    Make sure it's a satanic priest, he'll do magic.
    And it'll all go away.....

    A lot of priests see the good in everyone. I'm betting there isn't a father in jail, convicted of raping his own kids, that didn't have a character reference from the local priest. If fact almost every junkie in court has a character reference from a priest. So much so that a judge wouldn't take any weight from a priests reference


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 907 ✭✭✭raher1

    I meant I can't just walk in there and start talking. It's not the done thing. All that child protection which is good thing.

    Yes, I talked to him. I got someway with some evidence but they don't see what'd happening, how serious it is. I will try Tulsa and some like minded people. This social media world isn't fair.
    You should be able to scan your face in to let's say Facebook and see if they have images of you.
