Hey everybody.
I am a proud Irish-American (you may be able to tell from my name!)
I am also a Catholic. Now I know you are already prejudiced against me ( Irish and Catholic.. double whammy!) but hopefully we can have a producitve converstaion.
Slainte!

I used to be Catholic, but I got over it. Welcome all the same.

I like the Irish, and a good portion of my family are Catholics,. I also prefer to judge people individually, not by their affiliations (mostly, there are exceptions, of course).
Ex-Catholic, here.

Welcome. Why would we be prejudiced against you for those reasons alone?

Oh, come now. Most of us don't think those things make you dumb.
We think they make you
wrong, but not necessarily dumb.
That, well... we'll have to figure that out going forward!

Don't worry, my friend. If this be the end, then so shall it be.

Fuck it.

You'd be prejudiced against my Catholocism. A lot of people think Catholics are "dummies" or "Backward" when nothing could be further from the truth.
Look at Barack Obama's attacking those poor little nuns who only don't want to hand out contraception. Being Catholic isn't always easy..
Soooo... you'll paint everyone with a very broad brush. That's what will make me prejudiced; not the facts that you're Irish or Catholic.

You make the blanket statement that we're all prejudiced against you, and
we're the ones who are prejudiced?
