    Well its sunday morning and ones thoughts turn to religion, dont they?

    I heard this story on the radio this morning. It seems an MP is trying to get the situation which forbids marriage to a Catholic, the constitutional law, repealed. It seems the 'happy prince' can marry anyone at all as long as its not ...shock horror...a Catholic. He can, wait for it...marry an agnostic, an atheist, a jew, a muslim, a buddhist, a seikh, any nutter religion at all will do, but try marrying a Catholic and all hell breaks lose.

    Whats wrong with us Catholics? Do we smell bad, do we look bad, do we have scabied faces, do we have the furrowed brows of cut-throat malcontents. I havent noticed everyone getting off the bus when I get on ( not that Ive been on a bus for years) so I guess I cant be too bad.

    But this is blatant descrimination in an age where we are always supposed to pooh pooh such descrimination. I know this constutional situation exists after years and years of unfathomable English history, well its unfathomable to us lowly foreigners anyway...but..

    So is it time to get rid of this legislation where the prince cant marry a Catholic, or do people think its still worth while keeping hold of in an era where so many traditional values are eroding.
