OP, they've no right & no power in this regard.
Religious freedom is enshrined under Irish law.
Threaten the Guards on them first, they are probably being over pushy.

in 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didnt commit. these men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the los angeles underground. today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. if you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hir, the A team.

You drop your guard for a nano-second and these feckers march into the house and flit around like flies on sh1t. A flame-thrower's the answer because "fuck off!" isn't adequate.

Just tell them to FUCK OFF!

This is one if the reasons why I really dislike religion. How sad do you have to be to go around recruiting people for your religion and totally disrespecting other people's beliefs and making them lesser because those views aren't your own?

If push came to shove and they didn't back down, I'd get a big stick and just hit them with it.
The big stick being a crucifix would be a nice touch btw. Just sayin.
