(yay Ireland)
I stand by my prior post.
Goes way back.
Distrusting long standing differences.

Many Protestants still have a great distrust of
Catholics and their Pope. Protestants dont believe
the Pope has a direct phone line to God. Protestants
have preachers who tell them to read the bible for
themselves while all the time intepreting it for them.

Quite comical.

Ask me any specific question and I'll answer if I deem appropriate. Hell, I'm not asking you to post a verbatum copy of the Bible! You want to have insight into Witchcraft....google it!
Stop it! you're starting to screech

I have never been accused of making things
clear and to the point on this board.

Timm,
To end on a positive note (for you anyway), if I'm wrong, I'll end up like this:

ZIP NADA ZILCH....but don't take that personally. No comment about the main text of my post?? I thought not!
how dare you judge someone due to their faith?! does that somehow make you 'christian'? where did jesus teach your approach to others who don't have your viewpoint regarding religion?

and i don't feel it's a religion that makes things better (crusades, inquisition anyone??) but it's good people who make things better. but i guess using your narrow minded pov, only christians can be 'good'? gimme a break.

no it's not. some have no faith at all, but are good, moral, upright citizens...while prisons are replete with those who the neighbors thought 'were fine, churchgoing, god fearing men and women'. faith gurantees nothing, nor does lack of faith.

you're combining two religions in your history. it was c of e before the founders moved on, part of the whole reformation/counter reformation/civil war in england.


and didn't we have religious tolerance tests here? salem witch trials, puritan only enclaves? mass missionary 'attacks' on native americans? and now, we have those who want to attack the muslim religion in this country? yeah, we're really good at that 'all religions are welcome here' thing...matter of fact tim, you're one of those who judges religions different than your own-yet you invoke religions tolerance?! witness your attacks on somers religion. you're a hypocrite.

moral behavior arises from empathy, not faith. you don't have to believe in god to have a moral code. i'd rather face an empathetic athiest in a dark alley than anyone who rely's on a moral code imposed by an invisble giant.

humanity has believed in thousands of gods throughout history and most christians have no problem laughing off all those prior beliefs.

i'd suggest taking that just one god further and we'd all be better off.

Sure Irish are Catholics and English are Protestants but I dont believe the hatred is caused by the religion.

england and ireland have been fighting over the irish territories since william the conqueror/1066, back when it was all catholics. way more to it then religion.
