it's really moving. that's the, that's the
And you would think
that here in Ireland
this would be the
bastion, there is a
lot of it going on
but that's our
inferiority complex.
How do you, explain
that to me. What do
you mean by that?
Well you see,
Because it's other
it's got to be better yes
than anything we've
got ourselves
you see unfortunately,
I believe, in Ireland
xxxxx we got political
hum um freedom, in 1916. We
got so drunk on
political freedom that
we forgot to get the
most important one,
that was, social and
economic freedom. So
the whole country is
still owned by very
wealthy British ex-
landlords xxxxxx 2,000
acres, xxxxx xxx
County Kilkenny
magnificent, has all
That's an outrage the rights on the
fishing rights, on the
black waters from
Dunxxxx to xxxx
and they pay 500

usual way, not "Thyne
is the kingdom, the_"
and the minute that

people, most of them
went crazy "this is
fantastic" like you
they thought that was know
great

A lot of them, xxxx
take the vernacular, I
heard a different idea
that they have in
America xxxxx all the
time, you know
you see xxxxxx
ecumenism in this
country
on the other hand I
hear a lot of
conservative stuff
too, people saying you
know "it's never been
the same since they
change the mass from
the Latin to English"
and _ women my age, yeah
women I socialize
with, yearn, many of
them for the church yeah

a kind of cocoon of
security for them and
mystery. You know,
