I can look at those numbers and realize their is significant crossover from the Catholic population.
I have to wonder how much of those numbers are influenced by the booming Irish economy with its high growth and low taxes and the involvement of the UK in Iraq and Afganistan. In the past the numbers have been higher to remain part of the UK. The religous numbers also do not reflect how secular the area really is. If the numbers of weekly church attenders were used to determine Catholic or Protestant, they would not have been nearly so high.
It is amazing how many US pseudo Provos seem to think that there is massive political unrest in Northern Ireland...there really isn't. Most people are happy with the current situation and want to live their lives in peace and prosperity.
Just more than half of northern Catholics (60%) think of themselves as Irish and a still smaller proportion, 52%, said they were nationalist. Yet just 38% favour Irish unity over a range of other options. Nearly as many Catholics (32%) wanted to remain in the UK while 13% would prefer an independent Ulster.
