    Never broke a statue or anything, but I did secretly burn my confirmation photos :pac:

    I wish I'd got around to doing that. Between my sullky expression and the truly horrendous outfit the pics are cringeworthy. Alas, they've already been scanned and uploaded to facebook by a kindly cousin.

    Speaking of facebook, the admin from an NI loyalist page took a jaunt to Omeath and plastered union flag stickers all over church property, including over the face of pictures of Jesus. One up for pradastint kulchur, I suppose.

    I lol'd at that Bannasidhe :D

    But seriously I was genuinely curious as to weather magicbastarder had a problem with Jesus himself? I think its safe to assume he didn't tell people to molest kids. And I'm sure Jesus would be rather pissed off with the church himself.

    They completely misinterpreted his 'suffer the little children' remark.

    Being the pover that i am, i have had the dubious pleasure of purchasing several used cars over the years - almost all come with a sticker of padre fúcking pio gurning out of the back window. First thing i do is peel the bastard off.
    That's how i roll :D

    The first over-125cc motorbike I bought had St Christopher badges stuck onto the frame on each side. They immediately fell off for some reason.
    Anyway wasn't he de-sainted in the 1960s or something?

    Fingal County Council are certainly not competent to be making decisions about the most important piece of infrastructure on the island. They need to stick to badly designed cycle lanes and deciding on whether Mrs Murphy can have her kitchen extension.

    Was given some tatty iconography by a neighbour when I was confirmed. Never hung it up like you were meant to but couldn't throw it out for superstition. I reckon my full emergence as an Athiest was achieved when that block of wood went in the bin 4-5 years later.

    That's the place. The day we arrived we got invited to an 'inter-faith' all day picnic with ethnic music and religious speakers by some lovely Muslim people.



    We didn't go...

    i've holidayed further up into the mountains, in one of the white villages. walk out the door, and within 50 yards, you're surrounded by olive groves, fig groves, sweet chestnut trees, persimmon trees, etc. etc.

    It's a lovely spot. We had quince, fig, orange and lemon trees right next to the patio and amused ourselves in the evening feeding the chickens - chickens are psycho!

    Marvellous idea. You could also have clay Mohamed shooting using pork bullets so that the blasphemy would work on a number of levels at once.

    :D
