It's an ironic twist... the Irish Catholics now provide a destination where roughly 23 Million US women can exercise a right they were born with and lost.

My bedroom was the one on the right below the dormer windows.
Can't remember ever going upstairs...

At the time we were the only occupants apart from the farmers. 
My mom sent me over to farmer tom's dairy to get our great big
ceramic jug filled with warm milk freshly strained. When it was
stormy I had to time my walk back as the waves sometimes crashed
up as high as the old dirt road and splashed into the jug. Now it's
become a lousy tourist trap.

Bad, sad, times for a lonely teenage alcoholic.

I did make some pretty far out installation art along the beaches
when I would skip school. Freaked out the locals.

Same-sex marriage: Irish vote 'defeat for humanity' says Vatican official

The last time folks (well okay, a king) in the British Isles got in a twist with the church over marriage is resulted in a schism. Could a "Church of Ireland" be next? 

 
Nah, besides it was a Cardinal who made that proclamation, not the Pope. However, it would be interesting to see who would serve as the modern-day Thomas More.

Projection. The defeat is the Vatican's. It also shows (regular, not the conservative wingnut variety) Catholics are good at compartmentalization. Plenty are ok with abortion, contraception, and gay marriage.

Makes sense. I have a very catholic in-law who is in favour of gay marriage, mainly because she is anti promiscuity.

Ireland becomes first country to legalise same-sex marriage by popular vote - live | Global | The Guardian
All the results are in, and the returning officer, Ríona Ní Fhlanghaile, has declared that Ireland has passed the same-sex marriage referendum by 1,201,607 votes to 734,300. That’s 62.1% yes to 37.9% no. The total turnout was 60.5%.

"We’re the first country in the world to enshrine marriage equality in our constitution and do so by popular mandate. That makes us a beacon, a light to the rest of the world of liberty and equality. It’s a very proud day to be Irish.”
