The Troubles: Religious (well, kinda religious) Turmoil in Northern Ireland

Church History for Chumps

In many parts of the world, the question of whether you're a Catholic or Protestant means a lot more than if you submit to the Pope, or how you feel about Martin Luther.
One such place is Northern Ireland. For generations, the people of Ireland and the United Kingdom have been steeped in a conflict about religious freedom, civil rights, and discrimination. Tragically, this period of tension boiled over between the 1960's and 1990's, an era of bloodshed and violence known as the Troubles.
Today, we are joined by our fantastic guest Oisin Feeney (don't worry, he'll tell you how to pronounce it), host of The Troubles Podcast. Join us as we're led into the vast history of the Troubles by someone with the accent to prove he knows what he's talking about.
In other news, we're going to use this special episode to close out our season, so we'll be going on a break for a few weeks.
See you guys in Season 3!
