I’d imagine it’s much the same in Irish.Most people that use such a phrase would have very little or no religious affiliation.

General area Adams Street to be exactNot from Tigers Bay then? Steady on old chap, one lie at a time.
We need to get ris of the relegious terms if we are to be a country that is fully secular as envishigued by our PresidentI’d imagine it’s much the same in Irish.
Has to go Cranky get used to itah lads this is a completely pointless thread. Many people still say god bless in English, is this sectarian too?
Off with you then.The link between the Irish language and Catholicism is an issue worth discussing.
Another good thread from dafty. Keep up the good work.
According to you the thread is shit yet still you feel the need to get involved. Strange cookie.Off with you then.
Threw up a lengthy post discussing it on this shit thread m8. I didn't think it could get much worse but you could change all that.
The excitement is palpable.
What a stupid thread title. The Irish language was around 1000 years before the relatively secular concept of sectarianism was invented. Yet youre saying it should change because of it. Go away will ya.Irish speakers use phrases such as Dia Guit and It gets worse Dia Agus Marie Guit and worse again Dia Agus Marie agus Marie agus Padraig Guit. Slan Agus Bennacht is constantly used on RTE
Is it time now to dispense with these phrases and secularise the Irish Language or will there be resistance to change.
So you want to police language and how people greet each otherWe need to get ris of the relegious terms if we are to be a country that is fully secular as envishigued by our President
Let's discuss the link between Catholicism and the English language while we're at it.The link between the Irish language and Catholicism is an issue worth discussing.
