Irish verbal abuse: your post is a case in point.

Why, because you used bigger words? Your very position proves my point - you see my response to your verbal abuse as verbal abuse, and you see your verbal abuse as a neutral analysis of collective variations in situational understanding by socioeconomically differentiated historical religious populations.

You just don't think anyone else can see what you're doing.

See post 198.

I’m not surprised though, that now you have posted a irrelevant biography about yourself.

As you may know, various ethnicities of Catholics include strains of folklore and other cultural characteristics in their churches.

Yeah, and they also contained that canon of belief developed and upheld by the scholars of the Vatican's magisterium and reflected in its catechism.

There is a difference between ignorance and stupidity.

Yep. Ignorance is believing you can successfully refer to people as stupid in such a way that you believe they are incapable of seeing past an occluding level of sociological hyper-specificity and realizing what you are actually saying.

Stupidity is doubling down when you've been outed.

And CONTEXT is remembering that your basic point is that these knuckle-dragging Irish didn't know the difference between a Catholic funeral and burial and being dumped into a SEPTIC TANK, you insufferable jackass.

I doubt you have any idea about my "posting history". I you had, you'd know I have posted very few threads at all in my nearly ten years here. Save the personal attacks for things you know something about.

Is there a thread somewhere about Bethany House? I haven't seen one and had I seen one I would be saying the EXACT same thing I've been saying here. I imagine HAD there been one, you'd be at the front of the line condemning all Protestants for what "they" allowed to happen and not even consider that there was more to investigate - JUST as I already said on THIS thread.

Where is the source for this new information? It wasn’t in the one I read.

“Does JR know you hound and harass people you think have money? It’s creepy!” Let’s ask him? Jim - did you know that one poster here claims that I “hound and harrass” people here who have money? (I don’t, but that is the nasty claim by the hater who jumps on every anti-Catholic thread and seems to buy ever anti-Catholic slander published.) I have pinged my list as they can help either confirm or deny ‘bums claim that I am a “creepy harrasser”!

Sorry to see you bothered JR...sure he has better things to do than referee a thread spat! But, yes, this IS about the fourth time you have brought up information from my profile that my husband and I used to live on a boat and sail around. You have done so in the context of presuming we must be rich (we aren't - but even if we were, is there something WRONG about that?) and we don't care about the "poor". That's typical behavior for a Liberal trying to incite class warfare. It was quite surprising to see this from someone who is a member of a Conservative website. It fits the classical definition of harassment - since you do this frequently - and it IS creepy to me. Does your wife know you say this kind of stuff to women you don't know?

Four times? Wow. Amazing. And of course you are good at mind reading, so you know why I do that?

You really need to buy a life. Your pathetic smears reflect on you. As does your screen name. ‘bums.

Yes, thank you for the additional information just published today. From this new article:

    Corless has proved that 796 children died while at St Mary’s in Tuam – a shameful statistic that would not have been known without her years of dedicated work. It seems clear that at least some of these children lie in the small plot of land at the back of the Dublin Road housing estate. Excavation might be the only way to be sure. “Our intention in setting up this committee was not excavation,” she says, “but I would welcome the truth.”

We should ALL welcome the truth - no matter where it leads.

This building was an old workhouse before it was an orphanage

They no longer needed a working septic tank when it was a workhouse, decades before city sewers reached the address?

We don't know all the information, do we, narses. It seems your speculation that nothing at all was wrong in how these children died, were treated and disposed of after they died because the Catholic Church would NEVER do such a thing, is just as sad as those you presume swallow whatever the media feeds them. It's called hypocrisy, in case you were searching for a word. Yes, by all means, let the truth come out!

Poor, poor ‘bums, everyone appears out to get you!

If you did not join every anti-Catholic tirade, buying every MSM smear, you might not be noticed. But you probably could have figgered that at on your lonesome, right poor ‘bums?

Really? Clear? You appear to have a high trust for the MSM and a low need for actual FACTS. Sad.

Let’s hope that you didn’t miss the avid anti-Protestantism that leapt into this thread by the “you guys did it too” crowd.

Well said. Yours is a voice of reason in the midst of a public hating. Thank you.
