    Went to Medjugorje. Like the Las Vegas of desperation.
    Surely, however, Las Vegas is the Las Vegas of desperation?
    No way - that's like saying the "Rolls Royce of cars..."

    You'd think so but you'd be wrong as anyone who has ever been to Atlantic City can testify.

    I have been twice; my grandfather went looking for a cure long before I was born. Did it work? Well no he is buried in the Irish plot there as they could never afford to bring home his body & after his wife died the family seen little or no point.

    The occasions I visited were to lay flowers at his grave on behalf of my dad and clean up the monuments to his father that mark his resting place. The town itself is like Bray but more plastic and tacky and even bleaker! Everyone appears to be trying to sell something or empty your wallet, I was accused of stealing some religious necklace or other by a shop owner I had never been in his shop!

    Awful place that speaks volumes about all that is wrong about religion.
