[QUOTE="Tiger, post: 122997, member: 353"] Ah, yes, comparing the essential role of faith in shaping a nation to the role of horses in transportation—truly a comparison for the ages. But, with all due respect, you’re speaking from the vantage point of an Australian who’s never lived the Irish experience and who likely doesn’t grasp the deep, spiritual roots that Irish nationalism was built upon. The problem with your analogy is that faith is not a tool that’s been replaced by technology. It’s the very soul of a nation. You don’t need a horse today, but you do need a sense of identity, a moral foundation, and a guiding vision—things that shaped Ireland for centuries. The Irish didn’t fight for their freedom just for the sake of land or politics; they fought for their very soul, their culture, and their faith. Faith isn’t some quaint relic; it’s the bedrock upon which Ireland was built, and replacing it with secularism has only hollowed out the country. I get that in Australia, nationalism is often more about sporting pride than cultural preservation, but Irish nationalism is a different animal entirely. It’s about defending the core values of the nation—the things that bind it together through faith and sacrifice. And those values cannot be replaced by modern secular ideologies or technology. So, no, we don’t need horses anymore, but we absolutely need the moral and spiritual foundation that made Ireland great. If you don’t understand that, it’s not surprising—Irish nationalism, built on faith, is something quite foreign to you. [/QUOTE]
