    Because they're an organisation that facilitated and covered up egregious abuse of children.

    There mustn't be many religions or organisations you do approve of then.

    There’s full cctv coverage around the town so it’ll not be hard to find the person who carried this out. It’s not the style of local youths either in the town. As a resident Thurles man, the level of vandalism and crime had dropped considerably in recent years.
    Has it? I'm in the area also.

    North Tipp is as rough as fck.

    They're too soft to stand up for themselves.

    I'd imagine the Catholic Church have some spare funds laying around to fix it.
    I am willing to bet the farm that they will have a special collection to pay for it.

    Could be some drunk lass that gave it to a baffled lad when he asked if she could give him head.

    Most of you here are Catholic.

    You can never leave the Church after you're Confirmed.


    It's sad to to see this apathy. When you're dying on your death bed you'll be repenting and praying to all the Saints.


    Believe me I've seen it first hand with family members.

    If a drunk Jew broke a statue in the local synagogue it would most certainly not be a hate crime or headline news.

    The choices people make on their deathbed shouldn't really be a reflection of their commitment to anything as they're literally dying...... I'd probably pray to a toaster if I was dying or in pain and I thought it might help.
