We recently finished the series #DerryGirls, and my hubby found a podcast from Telegraph which tells the awful truth of why #IrishCatholics were so pissed off at #Protestants in #NorthernIreland. Housing and employment #discrimination, harrassment, lack of #VotingRights, etc. Did you know that only if you owned property you could vote, and business owners could vote twice! And guess who owned most of the property and businesses! No wonder there was rebellion!

@Lazarou White trash #Southern #Protestants are in church at this very second being told that they must endure misery in order to be 'great again' and that it is #gods will. I'm not saying these pastors are racist political arms of the #Republican party but what they're practicing is civic and #religious malpractice.
21 Jan 1535: After High Mass at Notre Dame #Paris #otd François I of #France exhorts his subjects to report all heretics to the authorities, even friends & relations. That night six #Protestants were burnt at the stake there.
**Fighting Calvin and Muhammad in Wall Almanacs after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes**
_Combining visual and textual analysis, this article suggests that royal image makers linked Muslims and Protestants to defend the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes and manifest the French king's religious zeal and imperial ambition while distracting from the ahdname (capitulations) granted by the Ottoman sultan that precluded France from joining a Catholic alliance to fight the “Turkish menace.”_

I support #ScottishIndependence bit as I pointed out to a few Scots, there are gaping holes on how this would work in reality, especially the border, tax, benefits, pensions, security, North Sea oil etc
#Irish reunification is a more simple affair because of their geographical location. However, the Ulster men see things very differently. They STILL see themselves as #British, when most on the mainland don't
Young #Protestants are pro-Ireland because they want to be European
9 Sept 1561: Opening #otd of the Colloquy of #Poissy - an intense but ultimately fruitless attempt to reconcile #France’s #Catholics & #Protestants
La #CEF déclare son effroi après une énième affaire concernant des hommes d'Eglise...
Je n'entends pas autant de problématiques chez leurs cousins #protestants, quand vont-ils cesser d'être effrayer et agir sur leur fonctionnement qui semble conduire inexorablement vers ses crimes ?!

#Methodists end #antigay #bans, closing 50 years of #battles over #sexuality for #mainline #Protestants.
It took just a few days for #UnitedMethodist #delegates to remove a half-century's worth of #denominational #bans on #gay #clergy and #samesexmarriages.

But a bombshell report published last week by Forum Study shows that sexual abuse of minors is very much prevalent in German Protestant churches, and that the largest perpetrator group — 40% — have been clergy and male, and more than 2/3 are married.
As Derek Scally reports, German Protestants have long maintained that they represent the "better" church — better than the Catholic alternative. Re: sexual abuse of minors, they've wanted to pretend this is a uniquely Catholic problem.
A strong meme has been that the problem of sexual abuse of minors in Catholicism is rooted in the celibacy requirement: if priests could marry, abuse would vanish.
