This question is too general. Please add which Protestants, where and on what occasion.
protestants to catholics
Calmly and in a non threatening manner.
No. They will only attack if they think you are threatening them.
Presbyterians are a subset of Protestants, so they are Protestants. Not all Protestants are Presbyterians, however.
*This is generalising* The two main cultural groups in Northern Ireland are Protestants and Catholics Protestants: Political view= unionist/loyalist Nationality= British Catholics; PV= nationalist/republican N= Irish Protestants tend to play rugby, cricket, football Catholics tend to play Gaelic Football and Hurling, Protestants support Glasgow Rangers FC Catholics support Glasgow Celtic FC Protestants vote for DUP & UUP Catholics vote for Sinn Féin & SDLP Protestants live in east Belfast Catholics live in west Belfast Protestants go to state run schools Catholics go to Roman Catholic schools Protestants are in the Orange Order Catholics are in the GAA Protestants celebrate the Orange day (12th July) Catholics celebrate Easter Rising Catholics speak Irish as their 2nd language Protestants speak Ulster-Scots as their 2nd language Protestants wear a poppy to remember their fallen Catholics wear a lily to remember their fallen Protestants regard the IRA as terrorists Catholics regard the IRA as freedom fighters Protestants fly the Union flag Catholics fly the Tri-colour flag Protestants call the 2nd largest city 'Londonderry' Catholics call the city 'Derry' Protestants refer to 'Northern Ireland' Catholics refer to 'the north of Ireland' Catholics eyes are meant to be closer together Protestants say ee-ch for the letter H Catholics say he-ch for the letter H Protestants call Catholics; fenians or taigs Catholics call Protestants huns Protestants see Ian Paisley as their leader for unionism; Catholics see Gerry Adams as their leader for Irish nationalism Protestants read the Newsletter Catholics read the Irish Times Protestants tend to be more right-wing. DUP are anti-same-sex marriage, anti-abortion, conservative Catholics tend to be more left-wing. Sinn Féin are pro-same-sex marriage, pro-abortion, liberal Young Protestants are in flute bands Young Catholics do Irish dancing Protestants see the Queen as their figure head Catholics see the Pope as their figure head Catholics have larger families because of disapproval of contraception. *These are just stereotypes that I have just grown up with and do not apply to the majority of people here. Just a bit of banter.
Their differences are their religious culture. Catholics are often nationalists in that they want Ireland to become one state Protestants are often unionists in that they want to remain apart of the United Kingdom. Catholics believe that the English monarch who are protestant oppressed them Protestants have the same religion as the monarch and therefore believe that the the British monarch is good. Catholics see the Pope as head of their church Protestants see the Queen as head of their church. However many protestants prefer to call the Queen as leader of their church with God being the head of the Church. Catholics see the tri-colour flag as their flag Protestants see the union flag as their flag
