    Catholic church threads are as boring as mass.As usual everyone will hide behind a keyboard and not actually do anything about it.

    If all the schools are Catholic,if the only local graveyard is in church grounds or if you're partner wants a church wedding you would bite the bullet.

    That's the State's fault not the Churches. In Modern Ireland You can marry without church involvement, you can send your kid to an educate together school and you can be buried in unconsecrated ground.

    If you both agree to it,on the slim chance you live near a school and can get in and if there's a council run graveyard nearby.The church effectively ran the state for many decades and are still going with their old method of do as we say or we'll punish you with their threats to TD's.

    They did not threaten TD's, Cardinal Daly stated that 'there would be a great reluctance to politicise the Eucharist.' That thread yesterday was not opened on factual grounds in relation to Ireland, it was alluding to vague American reports.

    Archbishop Raymond L. Burke of St. Louis said he would refuse Kerry Communion if the senator came to his diocese. As bishop of La Crosse, Wis., the archbishop had already done that with three local Catholic politicians who supported legalized abortion.

    It's happend in the USA, but the guy yesterday pretty much said they would not want to do the same in Ireland; but they are trying to force their will on the legislature.

    Despite the fact that i agree with the OP, I have to say I've very tempted to return to the catholic fold just because of his unwarranted use of large type.

    Already a thread on the subject.

    I too am tiring of the constant church bashing. It's old, very very old.
