    Ronan Mullen, bitter to the very end. I will admit, it's great seeing him suffer though ;)

    His twitter is an odd bit of reading. A person who retweets fidelma for any reason other than laughing isn't a person to be trusted.

    Ronan has made me interested in voting in the Seanad, just so I can vote for anyone but him.

    Is that FF image real or photoshopped?

    Fidelma's a vaccine crank, by the sounds of things.

    Remember that priest who came out just before the Vatican's latest "Synod on the Family" and was summarily fired?

    Well, he's returned with fists swinging:

    No side are still very upset

    http://www.thejournal.ie/broadcasting-ideas-complaints-2413183-Oct2015/
    The complainant states, that in his opinion, the presenter showed little impartiality during this interview. He states that the answers to some questions posed by the presenter were not fully answered by Quinn due to consistent interruptions by the presenter with further questions.

    Wounder was Iona the complainant? :pac:

    Waterford Whispers investigages Mr Charamsa:

    http://tinyurl.com/o29cd94
    A GAY Roman Catholic priest who was fired from his position within the Vatican after he revealed he was in a homosexual relationship has been told by Pope Francis to “**** right off”. While Pope Francis is the most forward thinking and progressive Pope in Pope history, Polish born priest Krzysztof Charamsa accused the Vatican of making the lives of homosexuals around the world a “hell”.

    “Ah, no Francis is doing his best. Yer man was probably too gay, I doubt it’s Pope Francis’s fault,” explained 25-year-old amateur Catholic Aisling Healy, “like, Pope Francis is class, he doesn’t think gay lads should burn in Hell for eternity, well, secretly he probably doesn’t”. Charasma went on to state he would “publicly reject the violence of the Church towards homosexual, lesbian, bisexual, transsexual and intersexual people”, but Vatican insiders have confirmed Pope Francis has told him, in a brief three word statement, to “**** right off”.

    “It’s not even about him being gay, it’s that he’s supposed to be celibate. It’s only fair he should have been stripped of his position on the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith,” explained Ciaran Lyons, who somehow still thinks he’s getting into Heaven despite his continued use of condoms during pre-marital intercourse. The subsequent resignation by Charamsa, and his criticism of the Church serves as a blow to the veneer of Pope Francis as a progressive 78-year-old man who believes he is the direct representative on Earth of a big man in the sky.

    And more worryingly a recent poll on Buzzfeed which stated Pope Francis would be the most likely Pope tattoo readers would get now looks to lay in tatters.

    Well the best result from this is that the people complaining won't have to worry when they hear a queer fella on the radio anymore.

    http://www.irishtimes.com/news/social-affairs/bill-allowing-for-same-sex-marriage-signed-into-law-1.2410678
    A Bill to enact the outcome of the referendum on same-sex marriage has been signed into law.

    The Presidential Commission - which is made up of the Chief Justice, the Ceann Comhairle of the Dáil and the Cathaoirleach of the Seanad - on Thursday signed the Marriage Bill 2015 in the absence of President Michael D Higgins, who is on an official visit to the US.

    Minister for Justice Frances Fitzgerald must now issue a commencement order which will allow same-sex couples to start getting married.

    Briefcase wanker is now in the corner rocking back and forth hoping somebody thats gay doesn't try to marry him :pac:

    Here's an article on a guy whom I'm sure has a briefcase:

    Same guy had food in a well-known pizzeria on Westland Row recently. Came within a cappuccino of going over to him and having a firmly-expressed word about what he and his ilk do.

    Look, some people like pineapple on their pizza, some don't, there's enough room in this world for the both of us!


  • Registered Users Posts: 837 ✭✭✭Going Strong


    Yebbut, a man marrying a pineapple is all sorts of wrong. He'll be doing all sorts of despicable things with it like putting it on a pizza or in a potato salad!

    There's no mention of men marrying pineapples in The Bible and that's all there is to it!


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,644 ✭✭✭✭lazygal


    Pineapple. In a potato salad.

    You can't make jelly with pineapple, it won't set. There is a moral there somewhere I think.

    Once pineapple has been heated to a fairly high temperature you can make jelly with it because it inactivates the whatevertheyares that stop it setting.

    Jelly science.
    One time a few years ago we had liquid trifle on Christmas day. The great idea of putting a few chopped kiwis into the jelly turned out to be "not so great". At the time I was convinced it hadn't been long enough in the fridge, so it was my idea to put the trifle in the freezer for an hour :o
    The ingredients were too good to waste though. Sometimes you just have to suck it up. There must be a moral in that too. Someone should write a book on jelly morality.

    Has the world not ended yet?

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    http://www.irishtimes.com/opinion/patrick-smyth-houston-bathrooms-are-the-latest-battle-ground-for-lgbt-rights-1.2412014
    What started in 2013 as a straightforward human rights nondiscrimination proposition, the Houston Equal Rights Ordinance (Hero), adopted by the council last year like similar measures in nine other Texas cities, has provoked a deratification referendum, bizarrely tagged the “bathroom ordinance”, which is to be voted on next week.

    Opponents contend Hero’s provisions would infringe their religious beliefs against homosexuality, and Hero makes no reference to public conveniences.

    But it has been interpreted by its opponents, in a grotesque demonisation of transgender people, to imply the right of transgender women to enter women’s toilets potentially traumatising girls and young women.

    Or, worse still, allegedly, to allow a rapist impersonating a woman to skulk in and commit unspeakable crimes.

    In a campaign of TV ads for the quashing of Hero, former Houston Astros star Lance Berkman expresses his concern that his wife and four daughters might be attacked in bathrooms by “troubled men”. Berkman also says the idea of transgender people is “a little strange to [him]”.

    A Campaign for Houston ad depicts a young girl entering a cubicle followed by a man as a narrator solemnly intones the preposterous lines: “Any man at any time could enter a woman’s bathroom simply by claiming to be a woman that day. No one is exempt; even registered sex offenders could follow women or young girls into the bathroom, and if a business tried to stop them, they’d be fined. Protect women’s privacy. Prevent danger. Vote ‘No’ on the Proposition 1 ‘bathroom ordinance’. It goes too far.”

    By whatevertheyares do you mean Jesus?

    I'm not aware of any instances of Jesus stopping jelly from setting? I have no idea what his views were regarding pineapple on pizza.

    Same-sex marriage bill passed (then blocked) in Northern Ireland
    Four previous attempts to introduce same-sex marriage in Stormont were narrowly defeated.

    In an open letter, Catholic Church leaders had earlier urged MLAs to take a stand against the vote.
