I am not going to start something up just to express my opposition to Catholicism, but your sentence above is wide of the mark i would say.

Most people who are not religious are just as abhorred by other religions as our indigenous one.

They are like fcuk. So many completely secular politicians and celebrities can hardly wait to be wearing a scarf and looking pious in certain countries. There are loads of completely atheistic people with fascinations for secular forms of Zen and Yoga and whatnot, pranam-ing and muttering mantras like good-oh when given half a chance. People could just rack off their anti-Catholic neurosis when they hear the oul wans will have a mass on the telly. So fecking what.

I personally don’t know anyone who watches the National broadcaster.

Face masks must be worn at all times outdoors in the Czech Republic now

Could be counterproductive as people will reuse them and at times touch the spittle covered masks?

Either televise religious services for all religions or none at all.

I've found myself watching it a bit since all this started, usually don't. There'll be a lot of us at home a lot of the time now too so I reckon they'll get a spike in figures too.

You personally don't know any practising Catholics? Interesting.

Out of curiosity what age profile etc.

Living in a Midlands town here and 75% of my 40 work colleagues, at least, practice. I mean weekly mass etc. Age group 24-60.

Well personally there is a shed load of utter tripe that I reckon should never be let next nor near a national broadcaster like all those dancing and big brother and love island type shyte, but there ya go. As for the chubby painted wimmin sitting round every morning on the telly telling us the way things are, for fex ache.

Wow... do you work for Veritas or something?
I'm 39, parents late 60s, they never went to mass. Both from Dublin, none of their brothers or sisters do or did either.

Just ONE plane - a Ryanair going from Prague to Barcelona.

Not seeing any other inbound flights.

The Czech's seem to have clamped down hard??

Ah stop would ya

I don't see any issue with mass being aired on RTE, it will help the elderly who are not on line, need some comfort, Mammy O' Rourke telling older folks go on Tik Tok what's next she be saying Tinder, some can barely use a mobile phone
