Irish Atheist

An open-exchange base for Irish Dissenters. Hopefully, a platform enabling Ireland's non-believers to make contact, exchanging opinions and experiences, at least until I become aware of a more competent platform.

Name:
Location: Dublin, Ireland

Born in Summerhill, a centre-city slum. Now 63, I remember the '60s as a time of economic relaxation in Ireland, with greater freedom of expression being taken for granted. Of course, abortion and euthanasia were still very much taboo subjects, but merely hurdles which would be jumped eventually. The '70s would be Socialist! How wrong we were back then.

Old Time Religion...03

Having heard a very good radio interview from Radio Times WHYY on the recent book "Battle For The Soul Of Capitalism" with the author, John Bogle, a reputable American capitalist, it certainly is a pleasant surprise to hear him admit his disgust at what has been happening since the mid'1980s within the system. According to him, the system has been hijacked by greedy CEOs, grossly over-estimating their own worth,
strange it took him so long to notice.
