i did not state anywhere anything about any kind of distinctions.the catholic church and the vatican are just that.the catholic people are the catholic people.catholic is not just a religion in my country,it is also a culture.i am a cultural catholic,as are many others.we are a seperate church and state.so no, your point even their was not valid!unlike in your country an atheist in Ireland can be a president or judge.i understand that this thread was about a lady who has decided she wants to enter the muslim faith which is her freewill choice if she so chooses'where some choose ta spew their hatred and venom towards islam an one other!, supported by the few also choose ta spew theirs towards catholics.and you don't need ta explain any language to me ,i have been reading you loud and clear just as you have been reading mine, just as clearly.an for the third an last time.the write ,spell and puntuation shit!is just an old an boring attempt ta demean strategy.though you demean me not.only yourself! we're done!...
My mother is from Limerick and my father is from Inverness Scotland The English have a nationality. The Irish and the Scotts have a psychosis called the English. Pleased to make our acquaintance!
There is a huge difference between spewing the venom you are and conveying verifiable facts about these institutions as I and other have attempted to do here. I will be the first to admit I can be an asshole, but at least I'm an intelligent, educated asshole that knows how to research a topic and THEN make my conclusions. You yourself have stated that you are a "cultural catholic" so to me that means you have just adopted whatever ideology was spoon fed you and have never actually applied any thought to it. That would certainly line-up with your posts and mentality concerning these issues.
ha! ha!and as bredan behan once so rightly said also. the english have a nationality and the irish and the jews have a psychosis.he went on to say the solution to that is telling and listening to the truth to recover as in the old maxim.the truth will set us free.we are as sick as our secrets.though being truthful sounds simple it actually takes a lot of courage.considerable courage,as many people have already lost their lives and continue to lose their lives in both countries,as a result of telling the truth.all the more reason for both catholics and jews to continue telling it.because they are prepared to kill us to try to silence the truth.but we have everthing in common with the jews.where more than 6million of each of our races was exterminated by the the british and german nazis. nice ta meet ya res. Céad mile fáilte agus salam! limerick your a lady :2thumbsup:
Dia is Muire duit Me mum is always singing "Go on home British soldiers!" As for me I was born in Glasgow but raised mostly in Manchester. Catholic and Jews are both people of the book. People who worship the one and only true God. And both America and Britain hate anyone that serves the only true Lord of all. They have elevated their love of materialism and money to the point that it's now just false idol worship. They carpet bomb indiscriminately Muslims and enforce a foreign policy designed to get oil cheap in order to fuel their mass production. All the time patting themselves on the backs and saying how super wonderful they are and how bloody advance they are. Meanwhile their hands covered in the blood of the innocent. I'll ask you this question... Have you noticed that today they never go to war with Godless nations? and they certainly appear to walk softly around Godless China. Britain in many ways still occupies Ireland because of her faith in God. And if you look to the middle east and at the numbers of dead civilian males, they have literally committed genocides in Irak and Afghanistan. Yes they'll offer all kinds of reasons for the actions. The politicians say it's the fault of 7/7 or 9/11. But they either did these things to their own people or these things happened because of their funding and installing corrupt governments and warlords. They're scum and they'll do anything to satisfy their greed. There's no God but God. So keep strong in your faith in the one true God because there's no one else that can solve our problems. The day of judgement will come soon and I have no doubt that the one true God will send the followers of Satan directly to hell. Allah(swt) will reward the pure of Islam and the followers of the Book. (Jews and Catholics) Are you aware that Islam survived because of the protection of a christian king? The king of Abyssinia made it clear that he would not turn over the followers of Muhammed(pbh) for even mountains of gold. Our shared love of Jesus and Mary brought our faiths together. Like two rains from the same land. So let the Godless mock and ridicule and claim there's nothing but them. They seal their own fates and even now are on route for hell. Let's keep our thoughts focusing on God and how we can better submit to him. Do good charity and deeds to help ease the suffering of others. And speak openly and without shame about the love of God and his goodness. But most of all study the scriptures because the ink of the scholar is holier than the blood of the martyr I'm going to be Ireland at the end of the summer to visit my grandparents. I'm looking forward to discussing God with them. They've always been very faithful and fearing.
Ireland was never really about faith in god. It was about aggressive subjugation, which is an unfortunate (best re-directed, altered, or otherwise nullified) aspect of human nature. What happened with royalty and all was a little bit about god..... but not really. It was mostly good ol' fashioned in-group/out-group, us/them fun. And that it remains, the religion just gives it a little tiny bit of legitimacy. And today, the catholics in ireland (in the "cultural" sense, not the actual church, who are monsters, as they are everywhere) have good fucking reason to be pissed, and really, some protestants do too, there should be no reason people can't move freely regardless of religion. It's been hundreds of years, everybody is generations past who's fault anything really is, it needs to be solved - and england really needs to gtfo. But it's simply NOT about islam.... the IRA are very politically shrewd, and have gotten the help of everyone from the CIA to ghaddafi, and have painted an "us and them" picture... but simply because oliver cromwell was a tiny-dicked douchebag does not mean that innocent people in other parts of the world deserve to die for the taliban's religious devotion, or anything like that. Simply because the US is an ally of GB has nothing to do with making dark ages clan warfare, only with jet airplanes, acceptable.

I'm sorry, but what the hell? I can't speak for Britain, but here in America, it's sort of the complete opposite of that. In this country, anyone in the clergy can get away with saying some absolutely horrendous shit that would get a layperson ostracized. But when religious fanatics murder people for their God, then it's completely fine, right? Also, if you want to say that American foreign policy is all around evil and has never done any good, then talk to an Iraqi Kurd, because they were the victims of a genocide at the hands of Saddam's government. We haven't gone to war with China because we don't have any reason to go to war with China. The reason we deal with them is because the Chinese and American economies are very much enmeshed together. It's a relationship of convenience and necessity. I'm not really up to date on the reasons behind the Ireland situation, but I severely doubt that it's because Ireland is a Christian nation. If 'God' sends the 'followers of Satan' to hell, where does that leave people like me who know God and Satan are fairytales? Not that I care, because I'm not going to a place that doesn't exist after I die and my existence is snuffed out forever. And I might be wrong, but don't Muslims not believe in hell? I was under the impression that hell was a New Testament thing that only Christians believed in. Also, if you think that God will take all Muslims and Jews to heaven, that they wouldn't be at each other's throats? Because that's what Muslims and Jews have historically done over the past several centuries. So what? Okay. Can do. Not really, because hell isn't real. Two out of the three major Abrahamic religions can't be wrong! Actually yes, they are. They're all wrong. This has always bugged me. If I do good charity and deeds, and I do, am I still going to hell because I don't believe in God? How fucked up is it that God would send a good person to hell just because they believe all the evidence that shows that there is no God? If that's the case, then God sounds like an asshole. Thankfully, he doesn't exist, so it doesn't matter. I'm sure you'll fit right in with 'very faithful and fearing' Irish Catholics. They have a history of defending terrorists who murder innocent people because they're being oppressed too. You know, you probably won't. My experience with 'very faithful and fearing' Irish Catholics is that they aren't particularly tolerant of people who aren't Catholic.
wow.... some of this sounds like something right out of the Taliban... you've really been indoctrinated.
Yup, you keep right on telling yourself that. oh wait a minute, you said they didn't RACE sheep, I read it as RAISED sheep. But either way, sheep farmer or sheep racer, your ideas are still rooted in crap that's centuries old and holding a grudge IS the ROOT of terrorism. So if if not one in practice, you certainly sound and talk like one in ideology.
Dia is Muire dhuit Roamy since they're laughing at your english perhaps you could teach them how to speak Irish? I recommend teaching them the expression "Póg mo thóin." Sláinte
hi res.the only reason the british tryed ta potray our war against terrorist here as a religious war is simply because the british have a tendency not ta like calling loyalist sectarians.because that would have been there own admital ta them being terrorists.so the prefer ta say protestants instead.that way they tryed ta fool the rest a the world through british media that it was'nt about terrorism,that it was religion based.it has never been a religious war.but they had no problem calling us terrorists as soon as the bbc got bombed for their propaganda.their were many warning given also before 9/11 years of them.stop killing our women and innocents or so will we.china is useful to them thats why.i'm not religious res but i have very strong faith.a few of our boys are over in syria at the moments fighting with the rebels there.remember them in your prayers.we are very proud of them also.ha! ha!your mother is singing a worthy song.is it limerick your comin' over to in the summer ?
What this really reminds me of is the Family Guy episode where Brian goes from being the pinnacle of liberal to a Rush Limbaugh fan and becomes a right wing fanatic. Turns out Brian just wants to be on the side that everyone is hating on so that he could feel superior.
My Mamaí is a Limerick girl to her bones and as she says it, ain't no better place to be on eath except in Limerick at a lock in. So of course it's going to be Limerick. It's going to be a summer of speaking Gaelic because ma seanathair gave up speaking english for lent 40 years ago. (He really hates the english with a passion) Actually me Mamaí and my grandparents are being very supportive of my reverting to Islam. I think they're just happy I'm no longer an atheist.
I'm going back to something Victoria said about "2 of the 3 Abrahamic Religions can't b wrong can they? Oh wait, they all are"- -Or something like that. Sorry I didn't quote it but it got me thinking and what annoys me the most about extremists christians, muslims and jews is all the hatred, wars, killing, fighting, arguing, judging, etc etc with each other... when all of your religions are based on different interpretations of the same damn thing! It's the same. Only you all disagree on details. (and you know Moses seeing God in a bushing bush and shit... you know what kinda psychodelics and shit they had out in the desert but that's another story...)---If I were God I'd be so mad at all the extremists out there bickering and killing each other (on all sides including the zionist jews) that I'd want regret making humans.
