Getting some of my own back!
Having had a naturalistic approach to life, rather than a supernaturalistic approach, for the first 55 years of my life I felt the need to tread very carefully in talking with family, friends, work-mates etc. The majority culture has always claimed a right to be super-sensitive and became "offended" at any tiny sign of disagreement with their views.
I often refused to give in to this "emotional bullying" (there were times when it was wiser to) and so felt isolated for much of that time.
However, I never dreamed I'd live to see the day when the Irish Catholic Church would fall off it's pedestal, blind drunk with it's own power, especially as a consequence of child sex abuse, as has been exposed over the past 15 years. Neither did I forsee the global improvements in communications which makes the covering-up of incompetence and dishonesty much more difficult for administrators.
Obviously, I am now thoroughly enjoying the daily/weekly exposure of our dysfunctional little "rosary bead republic" in all it's Catholic Nationalist glory!
