The official Roman Catholic thread

I’d often plough into an oul’ rosary there if I can’t get to sleep.

Was reading The Irish Catholic this evening.

Looks like the GAA have suffered another blow (cc @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy ).

It is their understanding that Pope Francis will have a gathering in the Phoenix Park next year and not Croke Park as was widely expected.

Does the Vatican not realize that Ireland is a pretend Catholic country now and people would only flock to a venue to see the pope if Coldplay were opening for him. Do they think it’s still 1979?

The Pope is Box Office.

A great, great man. Doesn’t matter where you’d put him up - he’d still draw a massive crowd.

I think you underestimate the pope and our ability to bandwagon

St. John Paul’s bogeys in Cabra should do the trick. Nicky kehoe will bring him in on Shergar.

Fucking disgrace

My youngest lad has been chosen to play the part of Joseph at midnight (9pm) mass this year.
When I heard the news I had to leave the room because I started bawling crying.
We will get all kitted out in new clothes for the occasion and we’ll get in good and early and sit up the front.

Angela and the baby Jesus is a lovely children’s Christmas book.

Fuck sake lads, will ye sort out the cribs here. Shocking to see them populated in such a fashion.

Was principal of my secondary school back in the 90s. Spent alot of lunchtimes dodging his maroon golf as he patrolled the streets of Gort for lads who’d sneaked ‘down the town’.
