Sex outside marriage was unthinkable, as was homosexuality and women were obliged to be subservient. With the priest in charge! Living her life in London, EOB continued to be a thorn for Irish Catholicism for her long life. And will be remembered for starting the eventual revolt against the church. When many priests were found to have used their power for their sexual gratification.[/quote]

I guess you have never heard of the latest riots then Barney.
Tensions are high because immigration is out of control. The housing stock has pretty much run out.

EOB did three main things to/for Ireland:-
1. Started the campaign to abolish stringent censorship
2. Brought backward Irish life to the attention of the world; often a colonisation legacy
3. Commenced a rebellion against the control of the Catholic Church in Irish society
Now people are grateful; not so then....
And you think Ireland is still safe?

She also wrote wonderful novels, which I would urge anyone to read who hasn't.
