Ireland's proud accomplishment over the last few years consists of finding ever more thoroughgoing ways to reject their Christian identity, dishonor their parents and grandparents, contracept their partnering, divorce their spouses, bugger their brothers and abort their children --- thus breaking faith at every level, humanly speaking, and achieving a corresponding level of moral, social and spiritual disintegration.
Ireland used to be justly called the "Island of Saints and Scholars."
Now they look on their own decomposition with pride. Pride with a capital "P".
May Divine Mercy --- somehow --- restore them.
And us, too.
I used to live there when I was young. I don’t recognize the place anymore, but I know the cause.
