Gaffbear 4,096 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 I feel less Scottish now than I did due to the hatred thrown at us from top to bottom over the past 5 years .. We are an all.inclusive club but with a strong loyalist/ unionist  heart Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblueal 2,117 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Most people aren't religious at all these days. Loads claim to be but few actually practice a religion. I'm just a Rangers fan, love the football and don't have an interest religion.  We have supporters from all backgrounds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee bit hypocritical no? This is what happens when he get's ahead of himself because supporters use his Pub, Add- ons seem to be the new Mantra of the Handwringers.

Agree, and so i would say then if the bible is not to be taken literally and is instead up to interpretation that is subject to change depending upon societies current opinions then why use it as the foundation for morality if you don't take it literally?

teddybears1872 129 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 I have grew up with quite a few catholic,Muslim, Hindu etc Rangers fans, I would say the vast majority are Prodestant tho.
