Whatever that means.

It was always the Holy Ghost when I were a lad.

You were not excused from Assembly and RE then? In Aston Clinton they
did not think there were any Jewish Children. But, Roman Catholic
children were excused.

Always amuses me the division between the various christian factions who
seem to think of each other almost as seperate religions, whereas in fact
the only real differences are slight variations in the mumblings and which
old geezer in a dress is in charge.

Yup, it's hard for an outsider to make any sense of it. But at least they
don't seem to hate each other with the same murderous passion as the Shias
and Sunnis.


Never been to Northern Ireland then?

That conflict was mainly about nationalism, not religion. And the total
deaths over more than 40 years (3568) were a small fraction of the
Moslem-on-Moslem deaths each year.

Here's last year's list of Islamic terrorism attacks, most of whose victims
were other Moslems. It doesn't include the 'legal' executions in places
like Iran and Said Arabia. The number killed: 27,594 (or about the entire
deaths from the NI Troubles every 6-7 weeks).
