There must be NO religous chaplains in Public schools. They are only there to spread their religious agendas. There is no guarantee that they won't bring religion into their work with children. Fully trained secular counsellors are what is needed to help children and young people to deal with their problems.

Either the Christian lobbyists got to them, or it just never occurred to them to NOT specify Christian. Or possibly the ad just used standard boilerplate from 70 years ago. It IS the Dept of education after all 😁

Let’s put more trained counsellors in, without agenda.

No christians, moslems or any other religions.

There should be no religion of any kind in schools

The Catholics have been guilty of atrocities worldwide. While this instance is beyond comprehension I'm sure that countries that were wholly Catholic have even worse tales.😡😡😡

MEANINGLESS MUTTERINGS......there has been nor will be no accountability or redress from the mega rich Catholic Church......nothing has changed.

I read the report and it fails in showing just how much the church and others were responsible.

Parading religiosity as though your ridiculous faith endows you with the moral high ground results in a sense of moral superiority that allows for heinous acts against others. The babes were the fruits of sin so let them die said Mother Church. They've known of these crimes for a long time now but it hasn't been widely published. I wonder why......let me guess!

The Catholic Church should be apologising 🤬

A lot to answer for

9000

Am I the only one that finds it curious these religious groups carry on like this. Treat unmarried kids and parents like this yet they worship a man born as a bastard. Would be horrible and ironic if one of these babies was the Messiah. Chucked in a old shit hole. Personally they need to be taken to court and tried for these deaths.

The Catholic Church is a criminal organisation. I hope the victims pursue a class actipn on behalf of those who no longer have a voice.

He blamed society and ignored the huge fault his party and the church played. It’s a national disgrace. The report also covered up or down plated key elements like child rape, unregistered medical trials, forced adoptions. It’s a fucking disgrace.

Women and children - the innocent victims of religion all down the ages and in many denominattions and countries. Wht took the Irish government so long to apologise for the wrongs of the past?

But what is he going to do about it?.

It should be the head of the church apologizing. AND paying reparations.

If you read the fine print however, the morality rate was only twice that of the normal population. Now obviously double still isn’t good, but I think the 9000 in the headline is meant to make us say “how the fuck did 9000 kids die” without realising that 4500 children would have died circumstances being normal, to which I would say “how the fuck did 4500 kids die”.
