In today's Irish Independent there is a story on the front page. The open two paragraphs run:
"The Archbishop of Tuam has told an order of nuns to engage with an examination of how 796 children died and were buried in a mass grave.
The remains of the youngsters were interred in a concrete septic tank in the grounds of a home in Tuam, run by the Sisters of the Bon Secours, between 1925 and 1961......."
It's becoming extremely difficult to stomach anymore of this.
Did some church 'official' say that everything must be seen in the context of the time?
Remarkable nonsense.
There is a cross on the gate leading into the field where the septic tank is.
