    I'm told Bavaria as well, but can't don't know for sure.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    This is untrue.

    It was a disused former cesspit, they used it purposely as a mausoleum. A lot easier than digging graves. Cheaper, too... and no coffins either.

    They did not record the burials in accordance with law.

    I`ll spare you the duck analogy but every piece of land is used for one purpose or another over time. The Colosseum in Rome was once used as a city dump. If a piece of land is used for burial, then it`s a burial site. Not a cesspit. Not a septic tank. A burial site.

    I read this article today in the Indo: https://www.independent.ie/entertainment/television/tv-news/irish-catholics-had-a-much-looser-attitude-to-the-church-before-the-famine-38000235.html

    It is about an RTE documentary called Rome vs Republic. The documentary asserts that Ireland was far less devout before the famine. If this is correct, then I think it is important to think deeper about this RTE documentary with it`s RTE narrative. Specifically, I suggest viewers think of the future implications this documentary unwittingly reveals.

    If the loose morals were a prelude to famine, then what does the future hold in these days of Sodom and Gormorrah? I fear the wrath of God is about to decend on Ireland more forcefully than ever.

    Am I wrong?


    I'd be more worried about the wrath of global warming tbh. And I'm only a recent convert to the severity of that religion!!

    Deflection as always and skipping over the fact the scum that ran Tuam broke the law.
    The septic tank used as grave site is abhorrent to any right thinking person the fact you think it was ok speaks volumes about your character and absent morals.

    Dodging again.

    So are you retracting your earlier false claim that they didn't know that this cesspit was there?

    Would they bury dead nuns in there? Absolutely not, and they did not.

    Explain the lack of coffins and failure to keep records of the burials, as required by both human decency and the law.

    Scrap the cap!

    Not so. The Holy Nuns lovingly laid them to rest and they would hardly have even known where the septic tank was

    You sound like an unholy inquisitor, demanding records from elderly nuns with Alzheimers. If the statistics you seek are not easily accessible, then that is evidence of a secular cover of of the fact that there are a lot of false accusations. Also, it seems to me that natural justice was suspended a long time ago when it comes to clergy on trial. The presumption of guilt is a given and often the accusers don`t even have to testify.
    The poster had asked to produce evidence to back up the rather strong claim:

    The "reality" is subjective because as we know, many of these accusers have been caught out in lies and the "kids" are in fact adults, many of whom are only alleging abuse in order in get money.

    You really ought to address this with more substance and less personal/conspiracy hand waving nonsense.

    Come now. It is disrespectful to defer to a person`s burial place as a septic tank, even more so when hatred is your motivation.

    Please stop with such a pathetic defence of the behaviour of the scum that ran Tuam. You know well where the children were interred, you also know that the failure to record the burials was an illegal. If you think my motivation is hatred you would be correct . The abuse of children by those entrusted to care for them is a hateful act. Your constant defence of the perpetrators is disgusting tbh.

    So no evidence at all to back up your claims and breaking the commandment on false witness, off to confession with you and may God have mercy on your soul.

    A pathetic attempt to weasel your way out of backing up the strong claims you made. You should get a site ban for your behaviour.

    When it is an actual septic tank it's not disrespectful, it's a statement of fact. As for your comment about not responding to threats, from what I've seen on this thread you don't respond to anything that may be considered a "difficult" question. You're happy to trot out your sh*te about how great the church is or whatever, but when you're asked a direct question you deflect or simply ignore it. Is it any wonder that people have turned away from the Catholic church in the numbers they have when they see people like you representing it?
