Here is where my maudlin ancestors are from..very close to the Gallarus oratory..I stayed with Mr. Collins in his wife's B&B and went on his tour..he pointed out where the ancestors are from. Some of the high hills above the oratory. Supposedly there are old Danish relics there as well. My great great aunt, after whom I might be named, died of making a novena in the wet weather that apparently involved walking for 9 nights around the gravestones. Do I want the same respect shown to new immigrants to the country that I would have liked my ancestors to have had? Yes. Do I believe in freedom of assembly and freedom of religion? Yes..unless someone is going to get hurt and then sometimes things have to be curtailed. mg
