[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Catholic Church has a lot to answer for. [/quote]

Actually her mother has a lot to answer for. When she put her in a home run by Catholic nuns, one of them spotted she could sing, bought her a guitar and got her lessons. [/quote]

I'm still going with Catholic Church has a lot to answer for. So many children molested. [/quote]

It isn’t just the tens of thousands of children molested by priests around the globe which the Church worked so hard to cover up for many decades.

The thing that Sinead knew at a visceral level was how complicit the Church was in fostering a morality mindset that essentially made children into something burdensome, shameful and disposable which given the Church’s opposition to birth control is the sickest irony.

All over the world children have been abused in all kinds of ways in boarding schools and in Magdalene laundries and in immediate and extended families all with the de facto endorsement of the Church. Jesus loves the little children, but a great many of His followers do not. But as Sinead had said in the past, everything wrong with the world begins in child abuse. And yet the Church she was born into - and those of the other flavors too - does far too little in actual fact to alleviate the suffering of children, instead the abused child is told to honor the parents and elders and clergy who exploit them.
