The word 'united' is an ordinary adjective; not usually a part of a proper name

@DavQuinn As for the subject of change of ethos, there is majority local support for change in 14% of schools.

That means at least 400. Even if you halved that figure, you'd IMMEDIATELY more than double the number of Educate Together schools in Ireland (currently 172).

@DavQuinn The 1st thing in the Bishops' report is an admission that there is "significant support" for change from "single-sex to co-ed schools". There's actually majority demand for change in 240 single-sex schools.

There are about 450 single-sex schools in Ireland.

@DavQuinn You're spinning like a top, David.

@DavQuinn Anyone would swear you were illiterate; the info is all there.

@DavQuinn 🙄

[Berlïn cyclist🚴‍♂️... 💙+💛= 💚 @aggressie]

@DavQuinn 95.1% of primary schools are under denominational control, while less than 60% of parents (likely much fewer than that) actually want that situation to continue.

@DavQuinn You really would be better off not mentioning this topic at all, David, given your long and shameful record of telling direct lies about it.

@DavQuinn This is Junior Cert-level political commentary. The contrast is not subtle, but neither is it very surprising or even all that striking. Politico balances its message with the sub-headline, making its overall message not all that different from the Irish Times.

@StPatri88801243 @DavQuinn @CourierClicks Apart altogether from the fact that it's utterly irrelevant ... except to the extent that your beloved Church was effectively running the State during most of the relevant period.

[Berlïn cyclist🚴‍♂️... 💙+💛= 💚 @aggressie]

@DavQuinn @CourierClicks More whataboutery.

And singularly weird whataboutery at that, as it was your ugly lot who were effectively running the State for such an immensely long time.

[Berlïn cyclist🚴‍♂️... 💙+💛= 💚 @aggressie]

@DavQuinn @TalksWild Whataboutery.

Look at them! What they're doing is wrong and therefore what we were doing is somehow less wrong.

This comment is as illogical as it is morally illiterate.

@DavQuinn @Liamo10858 He isn't.

I was a pupil at Blackrock College. I'm only finding out now from my fellow pupils that it was far worse than I imagined at the time.

I'm 60.

@DavQuinn There is only one answer to this bizarre comment:

When people have found out against powerful odds that you've been raping & abusing children and actively facilitating & covering up child rape & abuse, those people aren't inclined to look at the positive side of the ledger.

@MaryKenny4 You're not doing your readers of X a favour, as O'Connor's article is behind a paywall. And if you're not paraphrasing O'Connor accurately, you're not doing him any favours either. Especially as the article is behind a paywall.

You should quote him honestly and in context.

@DavQuinn A country run by a religious establishment is a theocracy, by no matter what mechanisms it exercises that control, David.

It's quite obvious that during the 50s and 60s the clerics had far more than just informal "influence". They ran the place.

@ChadimirPoutine The burden of proof is firmly on you.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
