You are one stupid person. The Catholic Church, a cult? What are you, WBC? As far as I am concerned, any church that lives by moral standpoints, is not a cult.
That includes almost all denominations of Christian, Islam, and Judaism, with exceptions for extremist groups, which you seem to fall under.
the catholic church has a hell of alot to answer for, but, for some reason, it got away with it. Makes me sick to my stomach. God??? Religion. You can keep it for me. Thanks for posting your story x x x
you would really take it all back if you knew his whole story and actually read all he and other men have been through. you would put up with the irritation, believe me. click on his channel
in 1908 a lady named sally rusa was in the woods looking for a dog until a ghost came and killed her so if ur reading this u will find a bloody body in your closet hanging there haunting you and will kill you and ur family and if u want to stop this just sends this to 6 videos in 30 mins or this will happen good luck
i'm scared of this so i had to send it to 6 videos in 30 mins
Why is it that Catholics like to make orphanages and torment children all over the world? This isn`t an isolated case. This seems to be the normal treatment that Catholics throughout the world have historically given to institutionalized children and it makes me sick. Catholics scare me.
it sickens me when kids are abandonned and abused and go to more abuse.
-one girls story in ireland...she was raped at 7 and her father sent her away like she was the crim...the nun called her a whore. where is the justice??
Unfortunately it wasn`t just one girl in Ireland. It was MANY girls with similar stories & they weren`t just called whores. Some were sexually abused. Many were beaten. Many were made to strip as nuns made vulgar remarks about the girls` private parts. All were imprisoned & worked as slaves with no sentence term to get out.. All were malnurished. All were mentally abused. All were denied an identity. All were made to live a virtual life of silence. All were deprived of an education.
oh i know it was thousands...i just meant one in particular i read about. i have studied all about the laundries and residential schools for boys an girls. also, being sent to asylum if complained about sexual abuse.
i suppose you have seen "sex in a cold climate" and all of the other ones. imagine just because you are too pretty being sent to one of those places. i can't believe it went on so long and like the women said the church ran the country. very sad.
I think it's fantastic that all of you had the courage to bring this issue to light. Never, never should something like this be hidden and forgotten.
Keep strong and press on - you are opening the eyes of many and helping those who have experience the pain to believe that there really is justice finally coming to help their tortured souls.
You inspire me with your courage and persistence to get to the truth!
May I ask where this facility was? I am so so sorry for the unnecessary anguish and torture you went through, and the deprivation you suffered for not having been given all the joys of childhood. My heart goes out to you.
This is very honest, heartfelt. Reading some comments, perhaps it was not everyone's experience there, but this is about how it felt to just one kid, memories of feelings. It certainly has all the uncertainty of being a kid, alone, scared. Even though I was not ever in an orphanage, I can relate to the honesty --how it feels when nobody understands and you're on your own. It's always an act of bravery to talk about abuse and how it felt and is remembered. Thanks for the courage, Mark.
It has become apparent to me that during the time that I was in the home and the time that Mark was there is a big difference.I shared with Mark how I felt about some of the pictures that were used in the video that upset many of us. He apologized to me and will remove some of them I apologized to Mark for some of my comments It was unfair of me to attack him about his memories in a different time period
consequences was paying jobs taken away, allowance taken away, yes scrubbing floors.
yes started my career at the federal reserve bank 32 years retired and since then stated my own business. raised 4 children married to the same man for 36 years. successful yes

This is a very Misleading video and story of this particular orphanage.I came to this home in early 1956 at the age of five The orphanage was run based on rewards and consequences picture shown in the video are wellover 30 to 40 years old. 90% of the children that came from Mount loretto Graduated and became
productive citizens This video is very misleading to many of us that call MIV home. It is like today follow rules your okay dont follow rules pay consequences
It sure would be nice to hear the stories from that 90% that you say went on to be productive citizens...Its always good to hear success stories.Would you like to expand on your comment : "Its like today follow the rules your ok don't follow the rules pay the consequences." Tell us about the consequences at the orphanage....
Mark, I was not in that orphanage but I did live in a orphanage. I have written several books telling of the horrors we children suffered at the hands of our caretakers. The beating, sexual abuse and verbal abuse were almost daily. I have made several videos myself (The Towel Whip) which somewhat tells of these horrors. Of the three hundred children who passed through the orphanage gates; most went to prison, became alcoholics, drug addicts, prostitutes or committed suicide.
Read this article:Mission of the Immaculate Virgin on Staten Island, which became so well known for brutality that youths would run away and sleep on the subway rather than spend even one night there. According to New York Newsday, "Adolescents returning from temporary placements ... described a pattern of incidents in which longer-term residents raped, robbed, or assaulted newcomers while night-shift staff slept on the job." [14]
during the time of the 1970 and 1980 the home was taken over by social services yes you still had the nuns and priest but alotof them had any control of what went on in the dorms. they started to prepare in 1969 as group homes this changed everything.more lay people in charge of the houses, less involvement of the nuns and priest. it sure wasnt like the way i grew up there.
@AuthorRDK you're a writer? How do I become a writer? It's my dream for my stories to be published and turned into books or book series'! I have stories and one-shots (where i made mistakes, but my new ones, are better) on Quizilla. My username is AliceTheRedhead. Can you review my story "A Sudden Second Life"? I'd be an honor if you did. And if I made any errors, can tell me them and how to correct them, if it's not too much typing?

hey Mark I was at the Mount from 1958-1969 and you kinda exaggated. This was an orphanage and I experienced a few things that the nuns did, but nothing so extreme as you discribe. I spent about 11 years there and got involved in sports and made a lot of good friends. I am sorry you remember it so awfully. I took some real good expierence out of that place. We have a reunion every year, maybe you should come. See you and God Bless You!!
