Or here’s another excellent article on the crazy desire of the news media to vilify Ireland, Catholicism, and nuns:

Most of the comments are worth reading, too. For instance, there’s this comment, one of many excellent responses:

“Between 1925 and 1937, 204 children died at the Home — an average of 17 per year. 17 deaths out of 200 children equals a mortality rate of 8.5%. It is interesting to compare that with the rest of the country at the time. In 1933, the infant mortality rate in Dublin was 83 per thousand (ie. a mortality rate of 8.3%), in Cork it was 89 per thousand (8.9%), in Waterford it was 102 per thousand (10.2%) and in Limerick it was 132 per thousand (13.2%). (Source: Irish Press, 12th April, 1935; below).In foundling homes in the US in the early 20th century, mortality was sometimes reported as greater than 90 per cent among infants cared for in such institutions. Lack of understanding of nutrition, cross-infection associated with overcrowding by today’s standards, and the dangers of unpasteurised human milk substitutes were the main factors.”

This is about getting abortion fully legalized in Ireland. The argument is Church Bad means Abortion Good. The prodeath people will use any lie available to get the blood they want.

Thank you for posting this link. The comments were very good until the usual bee-in-the-bonnet anti-Catholics showed up,lol.
