    What has the battle of the Somme got to do with the 12th of July?

    So a catholic fella agrees with me and you think that whole idea is do ludicrous that it must be myself using another account.

    Maybe not everyone in this country shares the sane views as yourself.

    Maybe we should have a Catholic board and a Protestant board? Partition always works.

    I would imagine, apart from one or two exceptions, that the majority of the posters going on about the Troubles and sectarianism/bigotry aren't even religious, never mind practicing cafflicks or proddies.

    Much as the same way that the Celtic/Rangers fans who attend Celtic Park/Ibrox and sing songs about Ireland and King Billy and the IRA are about as Irish as haggis and shortbread.

    I would consider myself religious because I have a very strong faith and I am a practicing Catholic although I do believe that there is wisdom to be founf in all faiths.

    It's a nice thought but the problem with that is every 12th July some one would get mischievous and bombard the catholic board with pictures of the Queen beating the Pope up with one of those inflatable hammers.

    Some people will use any excuse for a scrap I suppose.

    That wisdom tends to be dwarfed by the sheer magnitude of bullshit prevalent in most religions though.

    Then the Catholics would respond with images of petrol bombs and stone sin retribution.

    Your right, it's been a big Truman Show performance for all you folk outside of the country.

    The rioters and men marching up streets are actually very dramatic and disciplined thespians.

    Nah - everyone, on both side's is more imaginative and mature these days. It'd be pictures of King Billy on a gay pride march or the Pope Urinating over a lambeg drum............

    I was going to say that you couldn't really say that about Watford. Then I remembered that we've got Elton John, Brian Conley and Vinnie Jones :emoticon-0106-cryin
