Catholic institutions preyed on needy kids

Your right Ruth.

 I'm not religious, in the 'go to church' sense, but i have my own beliefs. Having said that i would never 'mock' others beliefs, its just hurtful, and  you never really know if you are wrong or right, humans are very good at jumping to the wrong conclusion.

Exactly Jason; In the end who can say who is right and who is wrong? As far as I know no one who has passed over has come back to say.

I don't thing anybody is trying to convert anybody else on here? but freedom of speech can be very hurtful if used wrong! it holds a power that should be used with care,

Well said, with freedom comes responsibility.

 there is no point speaking exactly what is on your mind if its just going to annoy everyone around you, and cause them to switch off to you, it serves no purpose, its far better to put your point across in a manor all will understand and listen to. The louder you shout doesn't always mean more people will hear!  Liken it to shoving your hand into a pool of fish and thrashing it about, trying to catch one!!  you'll never do it, they swim away, but if your careful, and think about it, you'll catch one!! 

I think we need to stop been angry, and judgemental of other peoples views, live our lives how we think is the best (remembering we all have to live together on this rock!!) and try to learn from our contact with others, and things we see around us!

Agreed.
