    They're both down the road. Freemasons, Templars, 33 degree masons, all the jazz

    Why would it count in the first place. I just made the point it was hardly a secret society as apposed to others mentioned, jesus. No dick measuring here, I simply answered the question directed at me. No need for the aggression.

    The OP mentioned they didn't count. It didn't need a qualifier, which was not what you posted. You posted asking how the IRA is a secret society, which was not once stated. AH is prone to flinging the same tired responses into every thread, so it's clear that in a thread about societies, the IRA or the government were going to be brought up. If you don't know this, lurk more. Your second post was nothing but an attempt at starting a dick-measuring contest.

    They were a group of people that carried machetes, very large hunting knifes and 75lb pull crossbows. Hang on while i turn my time-machine back on and i will go back to the founding of their organisation to see what information i can retrieve :)

    And yes, i do have a time-machine, i am not originally from this planet or time.

    Who controls the British crown? Who keeps the metric system down? We do, we do!
    Who keeps Atlantis off the maps? Who keeps the Martians under wraps? We do, we do!
    Who holds back the electric car? Who makes Steve Guttenberg a star? We do, we do!
    Who robs cavefish of their sight? Who rigs every Oscar night? We do, we do, we do!'

    Like a certain Fianna Fail tent at the Galway Races. There was definitely some group with secrets there.

    The bar in Leinster House.

    Thats not secret

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
