It's terrible that people treated you badly just because you are a Catholic.

I hope that in the future you and all members of your religion will be safe.

And the abject ignorance and arrogance rocks blithely onward ploughing over any contrary opinion like the unthinking bulldozer it is.

Is it? Because you have directly claimed that this never happened. Those people were motivated by politics according to your nonsense. You cannot back away from that claim now.

According to you, religions are inherited identities, unrelated to belief or practice. So according to your definition, you are a Catholic.

Certainly the quality of your arguments resembles most of the Christians I've debated on the Internet.

"I've always believed this so it must be true," followed by a quick pivot to nonsense.

But you clearly have nothing, so I'll let it drop.

Bel refuses (or is inable) to understand that religion and tribalism are not two separate things. Thus he thinks that if two people dont kill each other over mundane religious shit, its tribal (and NOT religious). Religion is one of the main root causes for tribalism.

People do not go out and murder each other over events 3 or 4 centuries ago particularly when rubbing two brain cells together will tell you they are themselves direct descendants of the 'oppressors'. Everyone on Ireland is interrelated within 15 generations.
