I showed this to Oakvale and Gully on IRC; neither were able to handle it.

As an Ex Catholic who is from Belfast, let me clarify that a crappy 80's Cartoon show by Ted Turner is not an accurate representation of Catholic/Protestant relations in the city. Shocking news, I know.

I most certainly did not need the explanation to know that.

So wait, everyone in Belfast died of nuclear explosion and radiation except those random dudes who got into a fight and then looked for the other bomb?  Captain Planet and the kids are kind of bad at their job.

There's no such thing as "Ex Catholics" from Belfast.

Hi BRTD.

Actually my insistence has mostly been at people who actually seem to believe there are no ex-Catholics in the US which based on polling is simply preposterous and downright absurd. People who identify as ex-Catholics are extremely numerous in the US. But his points about the Troubles being over is completely valid and I'm glad to see someone take this position.

How does that old joke end again? Ah yes. "Are you a Prod Jew or a Taig Jew?"

Segregation between the two 'communities' (what a ridiculous word in this context) is actually more marked than it was during the civil war.

Yes. This.

Guntaker may think of himself as an 'ex-catholic' for all political and 'community' purposes (and that's what matters in NI, this has nothing to do with religion) there's no 'ex' to it. (I might believe otherwise if Guntaker indicated an interest in voting for the DUP or UUP).

BRTD, I never said anything about religious identification in the US.

I think you misunderstood me here, I am an ex catholic in the sense that I used to be a Catholic, but now I'm an athiest, I'm still a Liberal and wouldn't vote for either the DUP or UUP (As both of them are arses), though I'm a tiny bit more relegated in Dissolution than people I know.

Oh, so then for political purposes you are essentially a Catholic. Right, cleared that up then.
