It's largely SirAF's fault. I think we can all agree he's the greatest Cristiano Ronaldo.

That midfield…:(

Cheers. As I said before I’m well aware of the negative aspects of the church in our country’s past but I’ll take a look at the links over the next couple of days when I have time. Although I do notice a couple of the sources are the Socialist Party, and rupture.ie (with the tagline...

I do know. You’ve used a few of those internet buzzwords and phrases in the two pages of the thread. (And I’m not trying to gaslight there you btw ;)) I live to serve. :D

No problem then. I’m in agreement with you on those aspects.

I’m well aware of the negative aspects of the church within Irish society. I’m just pulling you up on your non-specific blanket statements.

We’re world famous for our shameful history? At risk of fulfilling Godwin’s Law…the only country that sort of blanket statement really gets applied to is Germany.

I didn’t say it was. The mention of ‘durable relationships’ is the culprit in this instance. But that sort of blanket statement is a form of gaslighting.

It was horrific for some is what I’m saying I suppose, but it wasn’t for the majority. That’s not to excuse what happened to that minority because I’m in agreement with you there. I just think there’s this tendency for some people nowadays to engage in a kind of gaslighting when it comes to the...

Yeah, I agree it’s archaic. Culture and standards are a tricky area to make judgements on. After all the stuff about the church started to come out in the late 90s I remember asking my grannies and others of their generation about life back then and what things were like. Life was hard but...

The Irish electorate (or those who voted at least) is almost 70% McGregorite on the basis of this then. :lol:

I’m not sure why you keep mentioning this ‘drafted by a religious fundamentalist’ line. Were the defeated replacement provisions drafted by…secular capitalist fundamentalists?

It’s easy to see why the referendum on the definition of the family failed. ‘Durable relationships’ is a ridiculous term that would’ve led to a plethora of litigation, and given the feeling on immigration in the country it was never going to pass. It’s certainly of its time but it was also...

Thoughts on Bazunu or Kelleher in goals? The former’s been pretty great for us so far, but Kelleher has been more or less flawless for Liverpool since Alisson got injured.

If he didn’t then he bloody well should have. It made him (and boxing) look ridiculous. Although the sport itself has been on the slide for a long time, so perhaps that was just another inevitable nail in the coffin.
