I am specifically looking for information on the Sisters of Mercy, particularly in St Jospeh's Industrial School in Clifden, from the late 1940s up to the late 1960s, but any other relevant information would be welcome.

it proves jesus is far greater than mohomed or any prophet.

why dont muslims reject mohomed as a messenger and follow jesus since the koran says that jesus is from heaven?

when isiah(sp) refers to lucifer is he really refering to satan??? seeing how the name lucifer only apperars in the bible once and that is in isiah(sp) is he really refering to satan or is he really refering to a babolonian king that ruled during his time that help a name quit similar to lucifer except to a few leters??? and here is a real brain thumper. jesus refers to himself as the light bearer if you look up the name lucifer or the word lucifer it translates roughly to the bearer of light so is jesus saying that he himself is lucifer??? think about it.

I am a white man with a tattoo on my shoulder blade of the El Salvadorian flag. So when I start my bit in a few months, I was wondering.... who's gonna shank me first? Will it be the Mexicans, because they'll think I'm stomping their flag? Or the polar bears because they'll think I'm a trader? Or maybe the blacks because I won't have protection from the whites or the mexicans?

Never done more a night in the drunk tank until now.

I didn't think so when I was younger, because I figured along with the other Duraners, Nick had his share of teen female fans. Sure he wore makeup, but so did Bowie, Jagger, Boy George and pleanty other male sex symbols of rock. Nowadays, I find that I might be odd for liking him the best, even though there are a number of websites devoted to him. I know I asked this before in a somewhat different form, but does this make me an outcast??? Is there something wrong for liking him best???

If he has not been deported than what is his status?

Australia's highest cleric Sheik Taj al-Din al-Hilali, his claim that immodestly dressed women attract rapes and the fault lies squarely with the women themselves., he said, "If you take out uncovered meat and place it outside on the street, or in the garden or in the park, or in the backyard without a cover, and the cats come and eat it...whose fault is it, the cats or the uncovered meat? The uncovered meat is the problem." He added,He added women were "weapons" used by "Satan" to control men. "It is said in the state of zina (adultery), the responsibility falls 90 per cent of the time on the woman.

here is what he thinks should be done to women and girls

Believe it or not, all the prophets brought one message << worship one God and follow the commands >>
what Jesus brought, is what Abraham , Moses, and Muhammad and all the prophets did.
He tought them how to save themselves, but people changed the words and started worshiping him and ignored the commands of God.
Jesus never said << worship me, I am your God >>
he said < if you want to be saved follow the commands >

but Paul said < no more commendments > just take it easy.

what is wrong with the Christians? Do they listen to Paul or Jesus?

did Jesus come with the message or Paul?
where is the Gospel of Jesus?

We , muslims are the best follower of Jesus. we don't worship him, but we worship God who sent him and we follow the commands.
jesus says < I am son of man >
Do you have a difficulty to understand the Bible?

my ancestors earned 10s [50p] per week in Victorian sweatshops, namely, cotton mills. Does it really matter that the same happens today in parts of the world ? Isn't it more important OUR kids are properly fed and clothed ?

Are people burying their heads in the sand regarding the reality of all this third world immigration, i heard on the tv that in the next 20 years birmingham will have a ethnic majority. Personally i dont have anything against ethnics but their culture is the opposite of ours its just a shame the BNP took the line of being a party of violent criminals rather than joining the mainstream and challenging the PC bullshit we are fed on a daily basis. The BNP should dissolve itself and a new political alliance formed like in Holland where the right got together with clued up liberals such as Pym Fortune to challenge the Muslim creep on society, it has only started to get results with the banning of the Burka but eventually the Dutch will reclaim their country. All these ethnics have their own culture and countries so why do they feel the need to try and subjugate mine, in time we will claim it back.
