Eamon O Shea gave one of the great speeches after 2014.

http://www.independent.ie/sport/gaelic-games/hurling/this-team-will-win-allirelands-30621132.html

"I do think there are more important things (than winning). They are men who fought the battle to the end. Things did not go our way and yet the team kept going. And that is my understanding of sport and what it's about. Sometimes you don't always win. The way Tipp play now, we try until it's no longer possible. I am shattered we did not win. But it does not take anything from what was a supreme effort."

How do we know who is indirectly responsible for miracles or whether an intercession persuaded God? It is a matter of faith and can neither be disproved or proved.

Saint Theresa of Calcutta is now a Saint and accepted as such by billions of Catholics across the globe.Time for the haters to stop hating.

Social media is changing the way old media work. More voices are joining the mix. It is pretty clear from this story.

Yes, and more uninformed voices, adding copious amounts of stupidity.
The ones that make it into the newspapers are not stupid

Look,the Pope is infallible and always acting under the direct influence of God.If he determines the
that Mother Theresa should be canonised then this is a decision directly influenced by God Almighty.Miracles are really irrelevant.

It is heartwarming to see the Faithful interceding to St Theresa for their loved ones in Death Notices.This shows unfettered faith.
Protestants ditched that nonsense almost 500 years ago.

The article was written from a female point of view. And a lot of women were scared by the story. Because it will happen again. Battery is bad enough but the slaughter of the family by the father is a different level of violence altogether. And nothing is done to investigate these cases. So women aren't even safe in their homes.

And what about Mary Keegan who stabbed her own two sons before committing suicide? She wasn't a man and not the only woman to carry out an atrocity. Also like Alan Hawe people spoke of her great character.
How many of the 30 or so murder suicide cases had women killing the kids ?
