In the Smoky Backroom forum, on a thread titled 800 babies buried in septic tank at Irish home for unmarried mothers, 'bums wrote:

Oh, honey, I don't need your mind reading attempts for why I posted this thread nor your helpful hints for how to "woman up". I certainly don't need lessons on how to debate and discuss topics on this forum. There are MANY of your fellow Roman Catholics who have no intention at all to "come here to learn and share" but intentionally to "divide, condemn and reject" everyone who isn't Roman Catholic. How about a little objectivity? I don't need to defend myself nor explain, yet again, why I post what I do. I rarely start threads much less ones that provoke out of the box designed to injure and inflame - and this certainly was not, contrary to the hysterical reactions some have expressed. Save that scolding for those within your clique who must deride, smear, snarl and snipe at everyone who dares defend the faith once delivered unto the saints.

The comments about "mind reading" are a HOOT! N.B. This is the "Smokey Back Room" - the rules are different!

Poor 'bums, trying to stir up trouble - again! And failing, again!

Go to http://www.patheos.com and type in search engine “was catholic teaching involved in latest Ireland scandal”. Read the comments at the end of the article. Bodies were not thrown in a septic tank.

I know. Malnutrition is such a debilitating, naturally occurring phenomenon.. Why can’t we as a nation simply move on?

Trinitarian Christian denominations that oppose infant baptism include

So what?

Baptism doesn't save anyone any way so what's the big deal?

The priest does not want the child to be judged Catholic if he is not going to practice Catholicism.

Interesting.

There are FRoman Catholics who claim that ANYONE who is ever baptized is by default a Catholic. That being baptized anywhere makes them Catholic.

So which is it?

That's because they didn't know the true origin. According to your cited link:

That's a pretty damning citation from that link.

Where's all that love and forgiveness RC's brag on all the time?

You realize it wasn’t the Catholics that helped to perpetuate that Nazi slaughters, right?

Well, bb, the Nazis have been brought in.

Godwin's Law.

Declare victory. You made your point.

So they took and in-ground cement vault, disconnected it from the septic system (it was converted, remember) and used it as a mass tomb. What is hideous about that?

So if someone disconnected a septic tank (which I highly doubt they cleaned out first) you wouldn't mind being *buried* there?

I’m not surprised you’re ridiculing the Catholic resistance to the Holocaust.

You seem to go out of your way to post negative articles about the Catholic Church, but when there is an equally horrific article concerning protestants, not so much. The Bethany Home scandal was brought to light in Ireland a few years ago, yet I somehow doubt we would find anything about it in your posting history.

What a hoot.

In her almost 9 years posting on FR, this is the THIRD thread she's ever posted even relating to Catholicism.

Why don't you learn what you're talking about first before throwing around slanderous accusations as if they were fact.

Your post screams *desperation*. Anything to try to make a non-Catholic look bad.

Without knowing the details of what went on in the house, the simple fact that the bodies were *buried* in an old used septic system, is more than enough to warrant condemnation.

Even if that were the only wrong perpetrated by that group, and I somehow doubt that anyone who would *bury* babies in an old septic system would be paragons of virtue in treating them well in life, it would still deserve condemnation.

All the rest is speculation. The bodies in the septic tank are fact.

It gets useless posting to someone who won’t, or can’t respond, so they become child like and post large cartoons as a meaningless, but negative way to lash out in emotional frustration.

The ghost of Quix past.....
