So we could rock up to Galway and have a FSM uhh.... meetup complete with gorging on ramen noodles, and it'd be ok to park there?
Yep. We might need a declaration from Bobby Henderson to this effect when the chocolate soldiers show up. But the sign, and I presume the bye-law is quite clear, you're having a religious service?
Park away, sirs and ladies, to your hearts' desires!
Excellent!
Though, an abortion celebration by the Satanic Temple would be even more fun, what with all the heads exploding. I wonder if the Temple has an Ireland chapter....
Church of Ubuntu?
I've heard of "Linux evangelism", but...
It is the position of the COU that to receive the COVID-19/Sars Cov 2 injection consciously and deliberately with intent is in contradiction with our Constitution and contrary to our position on what is required of us by our Lord God and Creator.
Ah. Just common or garden xtian looney tunes.
I know linux users think they are god but that is taking it too far.
You're only god if you have root.
Oopsie. Seems "Papa Nazi" knew about naughty priests and naturally did nothing. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/01/20/europe/pope-benedict-xvi-munich-abuse-report-catholic-church-intl/index.html
Colour me not even slightly surprised.
"The brother of Benedict XVI, the former pope, has admitted slapping boys at a Catholic choir school and has been named as partly responsible for a culture of abuse at the school in Germany where at least 547 boys were victims of physical or sexual assault.
Georg Ratzinger ran the Domspatzen (cathedral sparrows) choir in Regensburg from 1964 to 1994 and said that slapping boys was common practice at the time. He denied knowledge of sexual abuse."

We all know Ratzo will die peacefully in his bed untouched by any law.
This seems to fit...
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Halls of justice painted green, money talking
Power wolves beset your door, hear them stalking
Soon you'll please their appetite they devour
Hammer of justice crushes you, overpower
[Pre-Chorus]
The ultimate in vanity
Exploiting their supremacy
I can't believe the things you say
I can't believe, I can't believe the price
You pay
[Chorus]
Nothing can save you
Justice is lost, justice is raped, justice is gone
Pulling your strings, justice is done
Seeking no truth, winning is all
Find it so grim, so true, so real
[Verse 2]
Apathy their stepping stone, so unfeeling
Hidden deep animosity, so deceiving
Through your eyes their light burns, hoping to find
Inquisition sinking you with prying minds
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Lady justice has been raped, truth assassin
Rolls of red tape seal your lips, now you're done in
Their money tips her scales again, make your deal
Just what is truth? I cannot tell, cannot feel
We pay
Nothing can save us
[Outro]
Michael Gove, the UK's Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (what an unintentionally great name!), and the man with the least plausible manner in all of Europe, has hit upon a solution to the latest self-lit firestorm to engulf serial arsonist, Boris Johnson.
When asked if senior members of UKGov had taken a “cavalier approach to lockdown”, Gove replied that he was sure the guilty would show contrition, for which the country would then "owe them an element of Christian forgiveness.”
Glad that one got sorted out!
https://www.thenational.scot/news/19885976.michael-gove-we-owe-christian-forgiveness-partygate-scandal/
So that makes the angry voters the bad people, not the person who did the bad thing.
How convenient.
I am in complete agreement with Gove. Once the guilty have shown contrition it would the christian thing to do to forgive. To show contrition they can admit that they lied to parliament and resign from parliament with immediate effect. Not just resign as prime minister but resign as an MP.
In order to fund a gambling habit, a nun spent ten years nicking $835,000 from the school where she worked as headmistress. Following her retirement, she was found out, arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced to a year in the clink, announcing that "I have sinned [...]" but in future, she intends to follow "more closely in Christ's footsteps".

I was kind of impressed that a nun in her 70s had the skill-set to take up wire fraud and money laundering 😀
If there's one think I've learned from watching Hollywood movies, it's never to underestimate the determination, resourcefulness and surprising competence of nuns.
Sorry, thousands of people, but your baptisms aren't valid.

Wonder if any of them managed to get a certificate of defection?
Would that mean they'd have a catholic status of -1 instead of the expected zero?
If they wanted to join up again would they have to be baptised twice?
Yer man would've got away with it too, if it hadn't been for feckin' baptism videos. Agent Arango, we thank you for your service 😉
Funny link in that article:
The video begins with Selvig speaking to a blonde woman and a man wearing a red MAGA cap. "There's a book we've seen that's in libraries in lots of schools that features a story of two daughters having sex with their dad," Selvig explains.
"Oh wow," the woman replies. The clip then cuts to Steifler explaining the story in more detail to two women. "They get their dad drunk to have sex with him," he says. "And this is, like, a book."
"Oh my god," one of the women, who appears visibly shocked on the clip, responds. The footage cuts back to Selvig who asks the woman and the man in the MAGA hat: "Should a book like that be in a school?"
Both the man and the woman say "no" repeatedly.
"Just get that out of the school?" Selvig asks. "Absolutely," the woman replies. "Why do kids need to read that?" asks the MAGA hat man.
Guess what book they're talking about 🤣
Meanwhile, also linked from there...
In Ireland that's just "normal" 🙄
They're also either dead sexy, or male criminals on the lam.
Or armed. https://www.imdb.com/video/vi3213271321
NSFW.
Or both. If you're into that kind of thing.
Transvestite nun-criminal fetish is rather niche, but YKINMKBYKIOK, as they say 😊
Broad church as they say :)
Yes, but thanks to the wonderful magic that is the internet today, we live in a golden age for niche sexual fetishes.
How did we get onto this?
Interesting article on a cargo cult in the pacific. The last line is an absolute zinger
As many of us guessed, the gheys are to blame.

The Burkes are back and nutty as ever.
Solicitor Ammi Burke, who is seeking her old job back at one of Ireland’s top law firms, has demanded the adjudicator appointed to hear her unfair dismissal case recuse himself – claiming he is a Labour Party “comrade” of the opposing barrister.
During the hearing Peter Ward SC told the inquiry that Ms Burke had “wittered on” for an hour making outrageous and groundless accusations. He said that he had crossed paths with the adjudicator only once and described as “specious” Ms Burke’s claim that a conflict of interest arose because both men were members of the Law Library at the same time.
And much much more in the way of bat-shít crazy allegations.
Ms Burke said she had “no confidence” in [adjudicator] Mr Baneham and that if he proceeded to hear the matter “no-one would have a real doubt as to what the outcome of the case will be” .
No harm in getting one's excuses in early, is there!
"A sacked solicitor’s unfair dismissal claim has been thrown out by the Workplace Relations Commission after her summons request for additional witnesses and repeated interruptions by her mother prevented the hearing from proceeding for over five hours today."
"Ammi Burke also demanded that senior counsel for the defence withdraw his remark that the Burke family was like a “travelling circus” – calling it “highly defamatory”."

IT had a much tamer report from earlier today which said little other than that the plaintiff was said to not conform to the norms of office conduct... I didn't consider it worthy of an update here 😀
These people really are their own worst enemy! Can't help themselves with the crazy, free clue: everybody isn't conspiring against you they just think your carry on is nuts and completely inappropriate.
How can it be defamatory. the family literally is a travelling circus and has been for quite a while. i can't see any other employer even thinking of taking any of them on.
