I am in danger of being accused of an obsession with The Irish Times letters page, but today I was rather amused that-- out of twenty-five letters-- no less than eight are about religion. They are on various subjects, headed (respectively) "Vatican and Dissenting Voices", "Mock Trial of Clergywoman", "C of I and Same-Sex Relationships", "RTE Board's Response to 'Mission to Prey'", "Cardinal Brady's Role Questioned", and "Anti-Christian Secularism".
Is religion really all that irrelevant to modern Ireland?
