    I'm presuming the people who sign it won't be using the churches for weddings or funerals in the future?

    We (the Irish people) paid for and built the buildings, and very nice buildings they are too. I'll use them for whatever the hell I please.

    (But personally when I die I'm going to have that thing done where they turn your ashes into a motherfukking diamond :eek:, seriously it's a real thing you can do. How rock n roll is that shit!. If I get married I'll probably do what a friend of mine did and have a kickass party on an Australian beach in the sun shine.)

    No,I could'nt be bothered. Instead I'll just state my religion as either atheist or non religious on the census again. Easier and far more effective in lowering the churchs power in this country. Internet petitions seldom work.
    This is true, I even asked them and they said that would make just as much a difference.
    The only thing keeping these churches going are people going to mass every sunday, when that stops the church will stop.

    You'd be surprised. People are willing to bend their principles whenever it suits them.

    Like the millions of catholics in the country the country that have sex before marriage, use contraception and beat the meat

    The countmeout campaign strikes me as being very worthy but rather pointless TBH

    No it is not. If the census results show a massive % drop in catholics then the church will have no right to say Ireland is 92% catholic.

    Exactly, these people should not be recorded as catholic on the census.
