Agnosticism IS the most dishonest position

The Troubles began with Rev. Ian Paisley's sectarianism.
As troops became involved in the '70s the KGB figured this would be an opportunity to tie down forces and serve as a cover for their own assassinations in the UK. Most famously was the attempted assassination of the British Government in Brighton '84 following MI6 rescue of Gordievsky. The OIRA took up a pro-communist stance which threatened to compromise Moscow's deniability so the PIRA became the principle vehicle. Republican pubs in Belfast tended to some of the best places to find a KGB officer when NATO intel wanted to feed misinformation to moscow.

That's a hell of a lot of politics!

It's a hell of a lot of Paisley's religious nuttery.

When you have lived through it, then you earn the right to have an opinion.

When you have seen your friends catholic child walking to her catholic school being stoned by Protestants, then you earn the right to have an opinion.

Until then you remain an idiot who thinks platonism is the end of all thought or whatever philosobabble you have glomed onto today.
