What is going on in Northern Ireland?

Why is there war between Roman Catholics and Protestants?

I have lots of friends who are Catholics, even though I am Protestant.

Sometimes I think kids are more peaceful than adults.

We may fall out sometimes but at least we don't shoot each other with guns.

Catholics and Protestants follow the same God but why do they not obey Him when

He says "love one another"?

It's silly when kids are sometimes better behaved than adults!

Perhaps that's one of the reasons why God said: "You must become like a child to enter the gates of heaven."
