Religious tolerance in British crown dependencies and British overseas territories

I understood one thing. It does seem you had a shitty life because of a sectarian conflict.

On the contrary, I've had an amazing life.  Wouldn't trade it for beans.

You wrote the message below that made me thought you do have stories to tell about religious tolerance in Northern Ireland.

Oh well, I'm not responsible for what other people think; that's on them. I wrote that in direct response to Brian's comment immediately above it. I grew up in 70's England, when the IRA was in full force. I remember the war game being played by men with tiny dicks. I remember the car bombs and the pub bombings. I remember the flames of paranoia and suspicion being fanned.

That's all.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
