I believe God has greater plans for Northern Ireland than that (thankfully). Your stand against your own country has empassioned me to do what it takes for God to reveal His hope in that land. So thankyou for your bitter disregard...just goes to show how God can use human foibles to bring about good - in this case my determination to prove you wrongKarl (NI) said:You obviously don't live here or understand here.
Take a common setting with common people in a common place:
On Bus, the route takes me to where i live but passes beside a predominantly catholic area, i live in a predominantly Protestant area. I am sitting in front of a young couple, no older than 25. As we drive past the Catholic area there are kids playing at the security fence, mucking around with things as kids do.
The man of the couple looks at them and says "Wee Fenian b*sta*ds." and the female agrees with a similar statement. (I am sorry for writing what i did but i felt it needed to be said.)
Now that was just a normal day in a normal setting, people here are A.) Indoctrinated into sectarianism from they can speak, B.) Inherently Evil, C.) Inherently stupid and D.) Unopen to change.
I beleive the only way to do this place a service is to destroy it.

I have been dying to get there, *sigh* someday.
