Anthony, I have just recently discovered your blog after having been a reader of the blanket. After reading this post I can safely say that the only expertise you have is Irish Republicanism. You do yourself a huge disservice when you try writing about religion or philosophy. 'Try' being the operative word. This article is just a diatribe.

Ryan,

there should be no faith schools where religious myth is taught as truth or where the Bible is taught in the science classroom. I find the whole system of Catholic Maintained Schools wrong

Totally agree with Ryan, we and I mean all of us ,need to break the connection with not only England but Rome and the pervs who work for it,both of them have been a millstone around the neck of the Irish.as far as the Vatican being a state yeah well it sure is a haven for paedo,s in frocks ,

2010-09-11T08:48:59.569+01:00

The Vatican City State is internationally recognised as a state. It is not a member f the UN but has observer status.

What claim that gives the Pope in terms of having his visit funded I am not sure. In my view it should be funded by the Vatican and anyone else who wants to freely donate. The public should not be compelled. I would feel the same way about Ayatollohs and the like.

As Alfie also asks, I'm still waiting despite the usual papist invective to find an answer to our question: if the Pope's a bonafide head of state as any other despot or dictator, does he then get an all expenses-paid trip to host nation?

what exactly has Ireland gotten back from all those years of pious devotion to the Roman Catholic Church? I'll tell you what it has seen its young sons and daughters molested in the most vile manner by repugnant priests, its seen its Free state gov't ruled by censoring right wing nutjobs and its seen despicable attacks on republicanism from the pulpit every Sunday. For Ireland to be free

an american evangelical christian
church minister was to burn copies of the koran on the ninth anniversary of 9-11, does he not care about the american muslims who
were killed that day, those people
burnt, it's likely that they had a koran on them or with them in the
office,
where was the ministers love for
those americans,
he is yet another church preacher<

The Pope falls under the title as a head of a state I could hear Marty thinking “the pope falls under a bus” sorry Marty no punch line. Though my brother would gladly push the pope under the bus and Robert would testify in court that he fell.
Unfortunately the tax payers always pay the bill for dignitaries and their entourage. The rare visits should be welcomed as without

2010-09-10T18:07:32.890+01:00

Is it standard practice for countries receiving a foreigh head of state to foot the entire bill for the visit? If it is, then we can't complain too much, for, as much as I dislike Ratzinger, he is still a head of state... Or is he? Does the Vatican count as a state? I'm confused - maybe I should ask for some of Michael Henry's mushrooms.

All the bile that that vile creature has spewed over the years.
This is like a, lets get into the Catholics day out!
All that our people suffered here, it's starting to sound as if we did it to ourselves or at the very least deserved it.

Marty,

Did'nt I tell you we could work this out! If only you had conceded what fanatics like me were telling you about the 'papa' years ago there's no telling how high your ascent in the civil service might have been!

2010-09-09T23:14:10.559+01:00

Is the Pope's visit regarded diplomatically as a head of state? Does this place this in a different budget and protocol as to how he's received by after all the head of the State Church that founded itself on opposition to Rome? Or, is the Pope coming as a leader akin to, say, the Dalai Lama, and not as a governing entity of his little fief? I am guessing to some Whitehall bureaucrat if
