So you won't need to worry about the referendum to completely separate church & state ?

Suppose it depends on the "jokes" really doesn't it? Only read a bit of the early pages, but saw the church as an organisation compared to the Nazi regime & the pope compared to Larry Murphy (my aching sides)! Hardly a bit of father-ted-esque banter with no harm in it is it?

Still not personal abuse to other posters now is it?

Fair enough. I was wondering why you went at me. I thought there was a fair enough crowd there today myself. Glad you enjoyed it. I couldn’t go myself so watched on TV and really enjoyed it too.

I think what happened was you quoted a poster and then I was reacting to the quote and not You -apologies again

The pope in his speech mentioned his pain and shame regarding the horrible and disgusting things that happened in this country and other countries around the world. The way posters are going on in here, you would think that he was personally responsible for all the pain and suffering the poor victims had to go through..

Good to see that begrudgery is still alive and well in this little ****hole of a country...

Well said!

Begrudgery is almost exclusively word vomit at this stage, it makes absolutely no sense in the context of the rest of your post.

At the end of his speech he blamed society for these horrible atrocities

Ireland was pretending to be a 'devout' country you mean and the Vatican was pretending to be filled with good men.

Ireland is no longer pretending but the Vatican still is.

That s been proven to be a very true statement

People went out to see the pope and posters on this site spent the afternoon slagging them and the pope off, its funny that the posters on here that spent the day slagging off the size of the crowd must have been sat at home watching the TV coverage all day.. If they did not like the pope visiting or had no interest then they could have spent their afternoon doing something else instead of watching the TV coverage and posting on a thread about the pope's visit...

Death Metal, Lordi and Ozzy Ozbourne. This isn't a place for common sense.

So who's going to see the Pope?
