Well done for standing up for what you believe in. It is not an easy path to take but you both have shown great courage and tenacity. It is not just a matter of 'freedom of Religion' as you state but also a matter of freedom speech. Our society has deteriorated since I was a young man in the 1960's when people were at liberty to say whatever they believed without being silenced by the authorities. Today, try to express any thought that does not concur with the officially accepted narrative about covid, the war in the Ukraine, or gender politics and you will find yourself being smeared and censored and in some situations like in yours, encountering both violence and exclusion.

And you and I and Enoch and his brother and the whole clan of Burkes , have a LOT of rights. If I lose my job Irish society pays me welfare. If I m in low income thresholds I get help with my housing, doctor's bills etc. All this is given by THE PEOPLE as a whole. And this is right.
