Then the irish wonder about anti-Irish prejudice... My grandad was born in 1862 so it wasn't that long ago...

These kind of ancient pagan beliefs and witchcraft are still with us today and not only in Ireland, but in many parts of the world, including England.

@@hneek249x I agree, although non-Muslim, non-African Englanders have stopped burning people etc.. They still do great damage though. eg my 'Christian' mother told my "pregnant whilst engaged' daughter that in her day, girls like her would be kept in a dark cellar and away from the sight of decent christian folk.. My daughter was hugely upset and almost aborted. That baby is now the mother of Daisy, which makes me a great grandfather. I abhor all religion which I regard as wicked.
