Then deny your kids the bumber pay day which is confirmation and communion so they are seen as different in school

fwiw I'd prefer to see religious patronage removed from the public school system (there will always be private schools of varying denominational hues) but no child alive today will ever see this imo."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

With all the talk about the marriage referendum the last few weeks. I decided to ask the very religious people that I work with and the people who call to see the boss for tea and a chat.
One man will be voting yes because he has a gay son and accepts everything as natural. The rest of the men will be voting no because it is not natural and god only wants a man and a woman to be married. The 20 yr old female said, and I quote, "the gays freak me out, weirdos" so I took that as a no vote and the 26 yr old female said no because "fuck em, they made a choice".
Do not rule out the hold the church has over rural Ireland, sadly. This is only a sample size of about 10 people but I'd imagine this would be the general feeling in most Ballygobackwards places.

School patrons should be banned from seeking baptism certificates or other proof of a child’s religious affiliation in managing admissions, the Humanist Association of Ireland has said.
The grouping argues that non-religious parents are being forced into having “pragmatic baptisms” for their children because more than 90 per cent of primary school remain under Catholic Church control.
It is holding it first meeting next week with Taoiseach Enda Kenny and Minister for Education and Skills Jan O’Sullivan under the “structured dialogue” process for churches and secular groups that was set up a decade ago by former taoiseach Bertie Ahern.
Minister for Education and Skills Jan O’Sullivan: wants clearer guidelines on how ‘standalone’ Catholic schools intend to accommodate children of other faiths and none. Photograph: Eric Luke ‘Catholic first’ school admissions policies may be illegal
Humanist Association of Ireland’s Dick Spicer: says the clear increase in demand for humanist services is proof of the need to continually survey the educational needs of parents.
Brian Whiteside, director of humanist ceremonies, said “education is at the top of our agenda” for the meeting on Thursday.
“There is a new reality that has to be addressed. One third of couples are getting married in non-religious ceremonies. It’s reasonable to ask what sort of schools they want for their children.”
He said because the Government had “delegated the management of schools to the churches”, schools could insist on children being baptised before allowing their admission.
‘Lack of integrity’
“There has been an awful lack of integrity and honesty in many areas of Irish life, and here you have young people being bullied into doing something totally against their conscience.”
Mr Whiteside said he welcomed the intervention of Prof John Coolahan, chairman of the Forum on Patronage and Pluralism, when he suggested that grants might be cut in locations where schools refused to change patronage.
While there has been little progress on the divestment of schools from the Catholic Church, Ms O’Sullivan plans to announce this month up to four further Educate Together schools, including in Tuam and New Ross.
But Mr Whiteside said more radical solutions were required. He points out that when the national school system was set up in 1831, “it was to be a secular system where all children would be educated together. Before long, in very simplistic terms, the churches got their hands on them and we ended up with Catholic and Church of Ireland schools in most towns around the country.”
He said: “It’s time to revert to the original plan and have what we were meant to have all along: a secular national school system.” As a step towards this, he said the Government could either fine schools or lower capitation grants for schools which insisted on proof of religion in admissions.

Kane Douglas shouldn't have got the nod to start the game and he repays the coaches faith with that bullshit. Leinster playing well without having to really push themselves so far. I hope Dave Kearney isn't too bad. Lukey is looking better every day. BOD mark 2 if his body can just give him a run of games.

I just had a conversation with my parents (in their 80's) about the referendum. While they have softened their views on things over the years, they are still of the "ah it's not right" viewpoint, and I expected nothing less. I argued the point, but I don't think it had any real affect, same as most country people their age. The thing they don't know though (and it's not my place to tell them) is that one of their grandchildren is gay. If they knew they wouldn't treat her any differently, and would tell my sister that it didn't matter while looking puzzled at how it happened, but outside of their earshot they would be scandalised I'm sure.

Would we get a home 1/4 with the draw?
Group 1. Clermont or Sarries will win with 20+
Group 2. Leinster win with 20.
Group 3. Toulon likely to win with 20+. Need favour from Scarlets.
Group 4. Toulouse. Bit a hope.
Group 5. Either Racing or Northampton must get 20+.Last edited by ArmaniJeans; 24-01-15, 14:56.

Fair play to Wasps. Managed to play much better in the 2nd half but leinster went into their shell hanging on rather than pushing on. Might be costly if it means an away quarter.
Jimmy bottled it with the pressure on and Madigan had an off day with the boot. But overall it's onwards and upwards. Bring on SOB and Healy.‘IF YOU had not committed great sins, God would not have sent a punishment like me upon you.” Genghis Khan
