I always find these assessments of atheism amusing. Jolly old Ireland is painted as only 10% atheist, 90% holy roman catholic. Since this is where I live, I know that is a lie. In actual fact, the reverse is the case.
How do I know that? Well, jolly old roman catholic Ireland was the first country in the world to legalise gay marriage BY POPULAR VOTE. A moment of pride for me in my countrymen. Abortion is getting wheeled in, blasphemy laws are being rejected and ejected, the priesthood is getting nailed for it's transgressions both current and past. Sure, the cross dressing freaks are backpedalling enough to power the Titanic, but they are losing their grip, a grip they clung to for so long.
When I was a kid there were three to four priests in every parish, now there are three to four parishes for every priest. That is a sea change. Next up is a referendum to kill the stupid blasphemy laws. That will also pass.
The vatican thought it had a vulcan death grip on us. They are struggling with the notion that they do not.
Frankly, the god botherers place their faith in the likes of this chap...

Now, one might think that the good christians abhorred that crap, but no. The Vatican simply shuffled him around as a priest hoping it would all vanish by magic. Not only that, they made sure that this evil bastard had contact with children everywhere he went. Isn't that so christian?
And lest you think I am victimising christianity, the very same religious crapola led 19 wingnuts to murder roughly 3,000 people in new york on religious bases.
Religion is harmless? No it bloody well is not
