man..didn't know a little of the Irish would provoke a s*******. I will only say this...I hope everyone in the 6 counties will learn to live in peace at some point. My hope is that it will be under the banner of a united Ireland. We'll see how *that* turns out. Tchocky, I'm embarrased to say you've overwhelmed my Irish capabilities lol...one of these days I'll have to get serious about it.
As for the original topic, I'm amazed at the amount of Christian bashing (not necessarily here) I see in the U.S....and anti Catholicism as well, these days. Once the priest molestation scandal broke, they were coming out of the woodwork...and the enmity between the left and the right in this country now is palpable, with religion being a focal point of that.
There are plenty of folks who seem to think the phrase "freedom of religion" means that religion should be erased from the collective memory banks, it seems.
