Secularism can go as stale as a cup of coffee

The learning curve is no doubt mine to deal with, but what I find so tiresome is the staleness, the dull conformism, not to mention the dogmatic intolerance of the secularist agenda.

I used to be one, of course - a secularist. But now, in common with better-known standard-bearers of that intolerant creed I urge the compassionate case for not exterminating the last Catholic to show his colours in Cork or Strasbourg or Brussels. Perhaps there is something better ahead - but it was also the week in which Bewleys Dublin cafe announced its demise.
