Boab 73 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 5 pages of tripe. Very little people in here seem to not really understand Protestantism. Must have interested some people to make 5 pages, but please tell me, are we known as a Protestant club. Rangers has a following of all sorts of religions all over the world. I understand your point but some people need to move with the times. Being a protestant isn't something you should use to batter other religions with. Rangers' players and fans today are multi-national and of various religious and political affiliations, although the club have traditionally been identified with and favoured the Protestant and Unionist community of Scotland, as well as the Unionist community in Northern Ireland.

Boab 73 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Am I the only one on RM that never reads this sort of thread? It depresses me Aw cheer up Papa ,it ain't that bad It's either; Bears arguing with Bears. Too many politics for a football club. Or People denying that we're a historically Protestant club, but a club who has modernised and doesn't have the same religious restraints as before. Depression from every angle! It's being modern and leaving the spine behind that saddens me! Nail in the head. Being modern has developed us to have key Catholic players tho'?

Boab 73 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Sure, they will claim to be a Protestant, ask them if they believe in God and they don't. Religion is dying, thankfully. It is the root of all evil. What a life it would be without it. I think that's it in one Dietspam. Nothing worse than hearing someone say: "I support Rangers/Celtic therefore I'm Protestant/Catholic." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boab 73 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Too many people peddle religion symbolically around here, in association with Rangers, in frankly a crass and insulting manner. It's no better than Boruc abusing Catholicism at Ibrox. I get the feeling that without Rangers, the majority of proud proddies here wouldn't give a flying funk about their religion - and with Rangers they see it as something which makes us so different from timmy. It's about one upmanship and not true faith. I am in agreement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, signing tims has helped us progress in modern times , but we,ve still got traditions to defend.......now where did i leave that spine of mine.........

albagubrath1 6 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Some folk just don't understand the concept of internet fishing. Anyway great post minstral, hopefully it will come to pass when the current charlatans are gone. Maybe even restore our earlier signing practices, the ones that won us a European Trophy? Now that's fishing. We won a European cup for singing ? Aye, The Sash won the 1972 Eurovision, did you not know that? Luxemburg won it with Apres Toi, in edinburgh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornelius11 74 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Religion doesnt come into it for me, but if people want to associate the club with protestantism then i dont have a problem. Each to their own, I dont have any religious beliefs so I cant really talk about that side of it. I wouldnt condemn others for singing the Sash or whatnot if thats what they want to do.
