I will stick my neck out here and say that possibly half the country, myself included, agrees with his stance and his comments in this sorry saga. The manner in which he is going about it is the problem. In the early stages of this case, a judge told him he may well have a case in his favour. I believe there is a legal procedure and path to pursue such a case. However, Enoch Burke and his family are having none of it. Come hell or high water they are going to deal with this case the way they want to. A very informative video Terry . Thank you.

At this stage, I can’t help but wonder if someone should have called for a psychiatric evaluation for the poor lad early on-if only to save him from himself. Even a judge asked at one point whether he was being controlled, which suggests to me that the judge might have had his own suspicions. Now, if this is all about deeply held religious beliefs and gender identity issues, as many suggest, it still doesn’t explain why other siblings seem to be involved in unrelated dramas. They seem to share a knack for courtroom theatrics-physically wrestling with Gardaí, defying judges, being dragged out of courts, and racking up fines kicking the arse of €200,000 making national headlines in the process. From afar, it’s hard to see any form of strategy here, coherent or otherwise , now maybe there is, I don't know , I am not anywhere even near as well educated or smart as anyone in the Burke family, but I do know, If I’d tried even half of this, my own family would’ve had me carted off in a white van long ago.

Hi Terry, I'm 68 and struggle to (fully) understand transgenderism, but I also understand the right of all people especially young people to be treated with respect and dignity. If young people are not respected then we are laying poor foundation for the future. You can refer to a group of people in the plural as them or they but not an individual. So I believe the Dept. should revisit this situation? You is both plural and singular and non gender, and should not be contentious? We have separation of Legislator and Judiciary, this is vital to a proper democracy, the Courts apply the law as legislated. Enoch Burke was jailed I believe for trespass? He is in my opinion, attempting to use the courts for political purposes which is not their function or in my opinion appropriate. If he believes the law is not fit for purpose then if he should consider how to campaign for change in a manor most law abiding people would.

[@terrygorry]

We are in the same boat then. I struggle to understand lots of things to do with sexuality and young people today. But I think, along with the Court of Appeal, that a teacher who is acting in 'loco parentis' to his pupils has a high duty of care. I also think an employee shoud follow the reasonable direction of the employer. I also think that anyone is entitled to enjoy their private property free of trespassers, and they have a constitutional right to do so. I agree with the broad thrust of your comment and believe hubris has a role to play in this employment dispute. For that is all that it is.

[@killbotone6210]

It's not a big stretch to call someone by the way they'd like to be referred to. Just a common sense curtesy. In other languages there are far more pronouns. Korean for example has different pronouns for family members, and then more for the age of those family members and order of birth.

I've no doubt in my mind this is the real reason because why would he do this to himself , for fun ? He's the only one in the Country with the backbone to stand up against the delusions of the Alphabet Mafia !

The freedom to be an absolute dose. Sorry but we are all subject to the law.

[@Don.Challenger]

Be fair to your god and admit this fellow - whatever his personal or familial preferences may be (which is immaterial to the case at hand) - is a hard case irremediable malcontent. He is not being forced by society from his personal religious beliefs but from sensible reason and self control in public by himself. Could I appear in someone's church and then return the fellowship by thrashing around in ecstasy and speaking volubly in incoherent tongues which are my beliefs though out the entire service? (have your minister/priest send me an invitation to your's if that is acceptable to them and you as champions of religious freedom).

[@davekiernan1]

The law of the land is what are the custom of that particular society. A perceived slight and a case whereby a schoolteacher is jailed by a judge who is not in keeping with the customs of society has to be fired.

No doubt he will still have no regard for the law and will end up in prison again. If the school continues to pay him he will have nothing to lose. Msybe the court could put a lean on his income and take it. And save the hard working law abiding people the cost of supporting this TURKEY!

[@JD19899]

How can you have regard for a corrupt law like that? That tramples across the rights of one to give rights to the other. People should be entitled to refuse transgenderism without punishment, especially if it is in conflict with religious beliefs, can imagine the implosion the woke would have had if it was a Muslim teacher that was being punished for refusing to call little Timmy a she because his warped parents convinced him he could be a girl if he wanted.

[@pedropadel141]

​@@JD19899 being gay is also against Burke's religion. Should he refuse to recognise the spouse of his gay colleague? Would that be ok too?

The contempt law in Ireland is absurd. No judge should have the power to jail a person for the rest of his life for contempt. Many jurisdictions have jury trials for contempt of court. Meanwhile in many violent assault cases with grevious injury, the perp waltzes out of court with a suspended sentence leaving the victim distraught in the court room. Enoch is heading towards 18 months over pronouns. Funny judicial system we have here.

As a Catholic, I considder this persecution of the Burke family to be appalling. As for the origin of the story, the use of transgender pronouns, I would not feel as strongly as the Burke`s because I would be less certain of what is right. Jesus told us to love one another. Very often, that is easier said than done but at least it is a simple enough instruction to understand. Is Enoch Burke acting out of love? If so, is he certain he is doing what God wants him to do? Would he do more good by giving everything he has to the poor? Again, not an easy thing to do but at least the poor would get it and not the state and giving to the poor is a simple and definate instruction Jesus gave. There is no ambiguity there. The things Jesus did not give explicit instructions on are not important. If they were, Jesus would have given us the instruction in a way that is simple and not open to interpretation.

[@LeoLynch-yg7vo]

There's nothing remotely Jesus-like about them. Think more the angry Old Testament God.

[@Adam-n8y]

Enoch obeyed God and spoke up for the innocent so that the children would grow up in truth. The church hired hands run when the wolf came. We need more sheaprards like the burkes. When one does anything to the weak, you do it to the Lord. When the babies are murdered who God created them in the womb, and how will we answer on judgment day. It is better to speak up now and lose our lives for the kingdom than to allow this evil to perveil. If anyone thinks calling boys girls are anything, they decide what is the point of the country. If we can't protect the innocent we deserve judgment and I only hope the people will stop fearing and speak up and call it out for what it is of the devil and demons. And may they be bound in Ireland in Jesus Christ name. He is coming at the door we better get right as a nation individuals for we don't have long.

LMAO there's a whole load of verses in the Bible that will clearly demonstrate the right of the Court and the wrong of the banshees! The Judge is there named in the paperwork - but if you go after them and harrass them - then it's yourself and your own nature that's on show - not his! Just incase you don't believe me - despite your claim of being a Bible basher - here it is in black and white for ye! :) Romans 13:1-2 says: "Obey the government, for God is the One who has put it there. There is no government anywhere that God has not placed in power. So those who refuse to obey the law of the land are refusing to obey God, and punishment will follow."

[@Fairwater]

All of this has nothing to do with Jesus. It’s the Old Testament the Burkes cling to. Enoch ‘s mother and father have done a great disservice to their children, they’ve created inflexible & blinkered young people who cannot tolerate difference and get on and function in a secular society.
