Ireland votes yes

RE: Ireland votes yes
Amusing.

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-32856232


Quote:Some prominent "no" campaigners have conceded defeat.

David Quinn of the Iona Institute, a Catholic group, said it was "obviously a very impressive victory for the 'yes' side".


"Obviously there's a certain amount of disappointment, but I'm philosophical about the outcome," he told RTE.

"It was always going to be an uphill battle - there were far fewer organisations on the 'no' side, while all the major political parties were lined up on the 'yes' side and you had major corporations coming out for the first time to say how we should vote on a particular issue."


Apparently his 'god' is no match for political parties and corporations?  Almost like his god doesn't exist.
