Tough read. You have to admire the bravery of people willing to speak up.
The church should have no place in our society.
I’ve no idea why parents still sign their kids up to this cult.
How we haven’t seized every bit of property of the cunts and turfed them out on the street I’ll never know. Done more damage to the country than the fucking Kinahans.
True horror. So fucking terrible.
Religion was purposely **designed** to enable and sustain practices like this and worse.
These are the stories behind addiction and mental illness. Fuck the church.
That makes such sad reading. Thankfully he got locked up. Well done to all who spoke up to put him where he deserves to be. Now just throw away the key.
Tied his wrists to his ankles and raped him on a coffee table in the presbytery with another priest in the next room who could hear everything. Fucking hell.
Anger is one thing and well justified, but you can also help make a difference by sending a few euro to charities like One In Four:

When I read this I just think why is that fucker allowed to live after doing something like this. He’s a monster, an aberration, just get rid of him. But of course I know we can’t do that.
This man is on the same moral plateau as Jack the Ripper. He’s a psychopath. He’s evil if you believe in that kind of thing.
I knew 2 priests when I was a kid who’d given up careers to be priests. They both went to Africa to teach kids and to run a little clinic. They were basically saints – they renounced comfortable lives to give their lives to others. There are thousands of Irish people, men and women, who became nuns or priests and who did this.
But there were also psychos and perverts and predators who had easy access to vulnerable kids and these fucks were protected – possibly because no one could believe (or even imagine) what they were doing but also because the church felt it had a right to deal with this stuff in its own way. This last point is key.
That lady Angela sounds like a pure angel. What those poor men and women suffered is such a disgrace I’d love to see the whole catholic mess be thrown out of the country and all they own given back to the people they hurt the most. Scum. Pure fucking animals.
How wildly known do you think the scandal was within the church before it all became public knowledge?
Like, do you think the average local priest out in a random countryside parish would’ve been aware of who did what?
Or was it hush hush at only the top level?
Power. Money. Perversion. A history of the Catholic church in three words.
My mom was abused by a Dublin priest when she was 7-12 years old. Every week. She confronted him with a detective in her 40s and he, like Walsh, denied. Not only that, but insisted he had never met her. No remorse. Not a care. He died a few years ago, never a case against him despite many men and women coming forward against him. How we have not gone scorched earth, I’m at a loss.
I went scorched earth. I was 12 when I learned about this happening to my mother. I stopped going on to church, I dropped out of religion class and whenever I got t he chance I spoke openly about it. People didn’t like hearing about it, they didn’t want to talk about the abuse that was and had been happening.. especially from a 14/15/16/17 year old. Well, shame on them too. I’m 33 now and still feel scorched earthing it.
Culturally kicking the church from Ireland was the second best thing to happen to the country, the first being Independence.
The Catholic Church is a terrorist organisation.
At a church wedding at the weekend.
Aparently the priest was being “very modern” for offering to give “anyone not of the faith” a blessing during communion.
Just a mad organisation………
Absolute scumbag organisation.
I can’t actually stomach what I’ve read there “ Raped a child in the sand dunes and then took him into the sea to wash away the blood”
Just light him on fire and be done with it
Fucking hell, even reading this makes me feel sick. This country has failed so many men, women & children by letting the church run the country. I can only imagine the strength & resilience it took to follow that through to see that monster prosecuted.
” concurrent sentences ” what a fucking joke..let him rot in a cell.
Divest the schools immediately. These monsters should be nowhere near education.
Corporal punishment should be brought back for these monsters. People talk about the Brits and the damage they did, the church was worse. Give me thatcher any day over this fucker Walsh.
