Offensive sectarian language is still used in Scotland on a daily basis, with abusive terms such as âHunâ and âOrange bastardâ being used negatively against Protestants (or those perceived to be) and others such as âFenianâ and âTimâ used negatively against Catholics (or those perceived to be). This reinforces religious and racial stereotypes as well as fuelling the divisions and conflict between the denominations and people of no religious denomination. Children commonly use words without any knowledge of their meaning, but with an understanding that these words are a means by which to insult others. Read the above âcarefullyâ and see if you can translate exactly what NBM are saying. No? Then Iâll help you: âChildren commonly use words without any knowledge of their meaning, but with an understanding that these words are a means by which to insult othersâ. They specifically mention âChildrenâ because this was how NBM came to the conclusion that âHunâ and âTimâ are âoffensive sectarian wordsâ, they asked schoolchildren which words they thought were âOffensive sectarian languageâ and the kids - in their wisdom - came up with these toppers. How many Celtic fans do you think consider âTimâ as offensive and/or sectarian? Go on have a guess? Medro, shooting his own argument in the foot again.
now i may have drunk a few but id just like to say that i LOVE the catholic religion, god bless you all and **** the huns *giggles*
