I visited Belfast on Monday and was sickened to see the amount of disgusting wall murals in Loyalist areas depicting the death of Pope John Paul. Last night on Ulster television there was a report of a Presbyterian minister who did an act of the dying Pope suffering Parkinson's disease just days before his death to a full congregation, which was met with laughter. The Presbyterian Church made a statement last night night saying they will not be taking any action against Rev, Dickinson (a good old member of the Orange Order) for this deed. This is an example of what Catholics face daily in this country.
