Good for you Seanie. i hope it goes well for you.
Preposterous statement by the senior clerics in Rome to former president Mary Mc Aleese, They said, (the devil works through children). God forgive them for they do know what do or say. Amen.
Its just another way of avoiding responsability for Hiding criminals.There was no devils.There were pédophiles protected by the Church. There were religous beating and abusing children in thier care.When there were complaints the children were again beaten for complaining. All this was known by the whole country but that turned away out of frar of offending the Church.
What another meeting?? Ha Ha , more funding for the already well paid many were never in Industrial Schools , Why should survivors Pay to listen to more shit about Groups are doing so well for themselves , I grew up in GB with Christine West (Buckley) but was not allowed a voice when I tried ,instead I was attacked and chased out of Ireland by the insane,

Seanie: - "the devil works through children".
