∙ 11y agoIt's not about religion. It's about the British being in Ireland. The British like it to appear as if there is a religious war going on and that they are keeping the sides separate. This is not the case. There are Catholic unionists and protestant members of the IRA. Catholics tend to be republican leaning and protestants tend to want to remain tied to Britain however.
The above answer is based solely on personal opinion & Anti British sentiment.There has ALWAYS been a religious element to the 'Troubles'.To suggest otherwise is not an objective argument.Its not however as simple as being Catholic or Protestant.
If it wasnt somewhat to do with religion, there would be NO sectarian violence.Known murderers & criminals now lead the political wing of the IRA.FACT.

What were conflicts between the protestants and the Catholics?
Roman Catholic AnswerFor the main part, conflicts between protestants and Catholics have been more conflicts between different peoples who happen to be Catholic or protestant. For instance, in Ireland, the Irish, who were fighting to save their nation, all happened to be Catholic, while the English were all protestant. Other conflicts have come about because of ignorance and/or intolerance. For the most part protestants have been brought up to believe that Catholics are not Christian and are worse than pagans. This has been very unfortunate, with disastrous results in some cases. I, myself, was brought up in a protestant household and Catholic beliefs were beyond the pale. I have heard that everbody was warned at my parents wedding to not tell my mother's grandmother that the bridegroom's mother was Catholic. All very sad.
