Excerpt from The Catholic Case Stated: Or, Principles, Working, and Results of the System of National Education; With Suggestions for the Settlement of the Education Question
Owing to many causes, some inherent in the subject, others arising from the laisser faire tendencies of the people, but the most of them resulting from powerful influences which sustain the National System, I anticipated not only indifference, but incredulity, and, possibly, a large share of censure, should I publish a statement of the abuses and evils of the System, unsupported by evidence at once, clear, full, and incontrovertible. With an experience of Popular Education large in extent and varied in kind, and a command of the amplest materials of information on the subject, I addressed myself to the preparation of this Case with those difficulties present to my mind, and influencing me from its first conception to its final completion. I venture to express reasonable confidence, not that the work will escape attack, but that it is beyond the power of any one to controvert its leading statements, or disprove any of the general conclusions drawn from them. You will observe, My Lords, that the evidence adduced, in support of the propositions which I advance, is of the highest order, and embraces the sworn testimony of a number of persons eminent in station - Parliamentary Inquiries and Returns - Official Reports, Correspondence and Papers - Extracts from numerous Works on the Education Controversy - various Ecclesiastical Documents, and many peculiar sources of information of the most important character. In fact, the unexpected delay in the publication of the Book, has arisen mainly from the difficulty of arranging and weighing the huge mass of evidence at my disposal, a fraction of which would suffice to prove the conclusions here established.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a significant inquiry into the implementation and effects of the National System of Education in Ireland, rooted in the tumultuous era of the 19th century. The author, a devout Catholic, responds to the previously published work of the House of Commons and reveals discrepancies between the imagined aims and the actual functioning of the implemented system of education. An investigation of the era's Parliamentary debates and official reports reveal that the National System of Education, initially envisioned as one that would respect the religious independence of each student, was effectively used in many areas as a tool of religious conversion. The author focuses on the effects of the National System of Education on Irish Catholics as they experienced the state-funded proselytization of their children in schools meant to be religiously neutral spaces of learning. With mountains of evidence drawn from official parliamentary inquiries, returns, and reports, and enriched with many other ecclesiastical documents and personal correspondence, the author provides a searing indictment of the severe consequences of the system. Their shocking and heart-wrenching evidence included cases in which Catholic students were denied access to instruction in their own faith in their own schools and were forced to participate in Protestant religious instruction, with Catholic teachers risking their positions and livelihoods to protect them. The author concludes that the National System of Education, designed to unite the country under a common and fair standard of instruction, has succeeded only in causing divisions, with some schools spreading state-sponsored bigotry and engaging in religious coercion instead of providing a place of learning free from fear of conversion.
