    IF..... I voted yes!?
    I didn't vote for a religious or moral reason. Abortion was already available in Ireland(for special cases)and was already available(for everyone for any reason)if you were prepared to travel and all the stress, cost, logistics, sorrow etc etc that would come with travelling!?
    So IF I voted yes!? Then I only did so to make abortion a little less stressful for any girl/woman who had made the decision to abort less stressful and with less 'hassle'..
    I'm still a good Catholic and I am sorry if I upset the Catholic Church(my church)

    I can see his point, be it's kinda one sided or whatever. As a Catholic I would have sympathy and empathy for anyone having to travel, so why not take the stress and cost away from those women and just vote yes.. It's not remotely 'non' religious if you voted YES for that reason..

    Your so mature that you couldn't ignore this thread and move on.
    You probably need yoga to control your urge to not comment on immature threads!?

    I don't get the logic of voting yes on Friday with the intention of confessing on Monday to stay down with the big man.

    Probably not worthy of another thread but...

    I did like the way he said the catholic church is a family and no-one gets kicked out. Because I've wanted to leave for ages and I can't. There's no way to leave the catholic church in Ireland.

    it's a pretty dysfunctional family isn't it?

    You could always try to get yourself excommunicated?

    Although I don't know what that would take. Could have to go through some serious effort

    It's classic catholicism. Sin first. Repent later.

    Declaring yourself a same sex marriage supporter, abortion loving atheist isn't enough. They didn't even kick out child abusers.

    I may have to declare myself pope.

    Plenty of things are considered sins by the church. If you consider yourself a Catholic that's something you have to deal with.

    He's giving his opinion. So what? He's not holding a gun to anyones head to go to confession.

    It's a good analogy though in fairness. No matter how fucked up your family is you can't officially leave them either. You can estrange yourself from them, and that's about as far as it goes.

    For forgiveness of sin in confession you must acknowledge the sin and be truly sorry. His premise that those voting Yes should go to confession is flawed.

    Yup, a bit of a "flawed pedigree" in the words of a former Fine Gael Taoiseach here.

    So the sin is unforgivable?
