The home, which was run by an order of Catholic nuns and closed in 1961, was one of many such institutions that housed tens of thousands of orphans and unmarried pregnant women who were forced to give up their children throughout much of the 20th century.
In 2014, historian Catherine Corless tracked down death certificates for nearly 800 children who died at the home in Tuam between the 1920s and 1961 — but could only find a burial record for one child.
I really think you should look into what constitutes a metaphysical assumption if you think that you can escape making them
I think you shouldn’t assume someone isn’t knowledgeable about all the different superstitions of the world.
I am, in fact, knowledgeable on this subject.
I have concluded that all of them are bullshit.
Every superstition or metaphysical (lol) or faith based belief system is baloney.
No proof for any of them to be correct.
Not one shred of evidence.
Not a single one.
Dude were done here.
I really don’t feel like we’re on the same page right now so let me just ask you some questions and focus on what I believe to be a serious misconception you have about what metaphysics is:
Do you understand that when two quantum physicists are arguing about what the “correct” interpretation of the mathematics of quantum mechanics is, that they’re literally arguing about metaphysics? Do you understand that when Albert Einstein figured out general relativity, he did it literally by reconsidering the metaphysical assumptions that were implicit in Newtonian physics? And if you do understand those things, do you think that Isaac Newton and that Albert Einstein (both of whom thought a great deal about religion, more broadly too, in particular about what their work suggests about the world we live in) were just like liars and fools or something?
Fools. They were fools who believed in metaphysics.
We know better today.
