Selling their most valuable assets and putting it it in trusts. They’ve sold a billion in assets since 1999,not a red tuppence in compensation.
Fianna Fáil enabled the religious groups to do this
The church don’t care about you.
I’m married, got married at the reg office.
I have 2 kids, never got them baptized, they have never set foot in a church.
Kids are 4 and 7 now.
This all went down in Dublin, there was war with the family when we made our decision.
Priest even tried to speak to me, told him to burn my church records.
I left because they don’t care about me , or you.
And if the church did harm my children, I know they wouldn’t care.
Walking away was the only thing that hurt the church.
Eamonn de Valera has a lot to answer for in this country

Should all be taken off them and ran out of the country. All land/buildings to be used for community purposes.
“No shit, Sherlock”
How anyone wants their kids mixed up with this cult baffles me.
Take the churches and house the refugees in them. IF they dont like the decor they can choose anohter country like Saudi Arabia for example.
Kind of like our government who don’t want to pay for victims who were in mother and baby homes for under six months.
Look, they need the money to fix the roof. It’s been broken for years. Once that’s done, they will give everyone back a few quid.
A group of criminal terrorists.
Wife wanted church wedding I didn’t but decided to keep her happy, but because she divorced her first husband she was told she’d have to have counselling sessions with the Canon to talk about why first marriage didn’t work to get married Church again!! She told priest because my ex was a violent prick and priest replied “it takes 2 to make a marriage work and 2 to make it fail” me silent whole time on good behaviour for wife stood up and said “shove your church up your hole, any money left over give it to the kids u raped and abused” utter silence from priest who’s face I’ll never forget and we left and got married in registry’s office👍 absolute shower of deluded pricks they are…
It’s a fucking joke the Catholic Church is still allowed to exist here after all they did. The Magdalene Concentration camps, child abuse, septic tanks filled with corpses, FUCK THE CATHOLIC CULT.
The church have well enough to pay out. They simply don’t see why they should. It’s institutional arrogance at play.
From the article: KAREN MORGAN
Clodagh Malone, who was born in St Patrick’s mother and baby home, Dublin, told The Sunday Times that the church had been “clever” by selling properties in prime areas of Dublin before the redress scheme was finalised.
Transactions included the sale of Holy Cross College, Drumcondra — one of the country’s big training colleges — which had a price tag of €95 million. The Jesuit order received €65 million for the sale of Milltown Park training college in Ranelagh, Dublin 16.
It is not only larger properties that the church has been selling but land and buildings such as parochial houses that are not required because there are fewer priests. Since 1999 the church is estimated to have sold €1 billion of assets.
Lip service to the church via baptisms, church weddings etc just because it’s “what you’re meant to do” is holding the country back something shocking.
