    When it's anything negative, it's always the fault of people, not religion. But the good stuff, that's religion.

    Religion gives many people the structure to live good lives.

    There are many very good people who don't need religion or are not religious.

    Since we're talking about binning tickets.

    How many tickets have we all binned for tomorrow?

    I've binned 3,665.

    I even went to the effort of printing off the PDF and binning them.

    So....how many have YOU binned?

    Unfortunately I won't be able to upload any photos of said tickets, when I discovered my camera was a "Canon", I binned that in protest as well.

    Religion "gives" many people the structure to live "good" lives, as deemed "good" by the church.

    These are some of the things that we enjoy freely today, despite kicking and screaming from the church: divorce, contraception, married women in the public sector, being gay and not being a criminal, tampons.

    You understand that, right? The church believes people who wear condoms are not good people, in fact I think it labelled them "evil".

    If this was someone standing there telling us there is lizards in the sky controlling us we would think he’s bonkers.

    What a cult.

    My conscience is clear. No religious guilt on me, no endless sense of self-loathing.

    It has also given many many many people the excuse to kill. In this country too.

    Try balancing your ridiculous claims. The modern world would be better off without religions.

    I'm sure it's just coincidence that not long after the abortion and gay marriage referendums passed the pope turns up on a propaganda tour.
    If you're sick of looking at tourists trying to spread out in a half full croker, have a goo a this.

    Step outside the aul echo chamber

    The church has it's doctrine, it wouldn't be the church if not. Do you think it should adapt to what's convenient for you?

    Holy GAA headquarters. Home Rule is Rome Rule. No wonder Unionists feared it.

    I think you're not the sharpest Peaty. This was organised long before the Abortion Referendum, probably Gay Marriage too. All Irelands put back etc.

    Nope, but it should be called out for exactly what it is, and we should stop pretending that it's a bastion of decency.

    I was just chatting with a relative there who was saying her lovely neighbours had gotten up a 7am in the morning, in the pissing rain, to wave them off with Union Flegs and jeering back in 1979.
