Scots Splitting From Us.

[brionon]

Is the religious divide in Scotland part of this debate,do you know ?

[maggiebee]

Certainly haven't read anything about it brionon.

What religious divide?

[sandyRoe]

Ulster Unionists, who are mostly Protestant, are strongly for the union. They will use any influence they have to sway their brethern in Scotland to vote against independence.

[jomifl]

Well, they worship two separate spirits.

not heard of a religious "divide" - link please

[Gromit]

Haven't heard of a religious divide in the referendum or haven't heard of a religious divide in Scotland?

I assume it goes without saying that the Prodestants would be more in favour of staying in the UK than not.

[2sp_]

I've never noticed a religious divide here, but I don't see what relevance religion has on the referendum. I'm sure we're all beyond basing our decision on whichever church we do or don't attend.

[mikey4444]

Not sure that religion is going to pay much of a part in this debate. But parts of Scotland are worse than Ulster for bigotry.

[2sp_]

Maybe parts of Glasgow, but not really noticeable in the rest of Scotland as a whole. In my opinion.

[boxtops]

There certainly used to be when I first moved to Scotland 40 years ago, it was unexpected and very noticeable - the first question my ex-MIL asked me was "are you a Catholic?"...... but I don't think it's got anything to with the current debate, nothing at all.

[mikey4444]

I meant Glasgow...sorry if I have offended any Scot on here today !

[2sp_]

You've not offended me, mikey. I can honestly say I've never come across any kind of religious divide other than the Wee Frees tutting at anyone hanging out washing on a Sunday!

[LochNessMonster]

No religious divide here brionon.

[emmie]

they have to vote on it first, it doesn't mean it will happen, and doubt it.

[modeller]

I can honestly say it wasn't until the 70s that I started to understand there were different types of Christians . It was probably then that reallly opened my eyes to the farce that religion is.

[BlueToffee]

In Scotland and Northern Ireland there are 1000's of so called Protestants and Catholics, but do they follow religion or just use the name to further their causes?
