What was it like for Catholics living in Ireland from 1940-1960?

Catholicism as practiced in Ireland in this period was very conservative and state laws reflected this. there was no divorce, contraception etc for people of any faith. attendance at mass was almost 100% and the bishops had the final say on all matters even loosely connected to morality. deviation was not tolerated and the church strictly controlled education, hospitals etc. conversely many saw it as a golden age of full convents and seminaries, with missionaries being sent all around the world. whichever, poverty, illness and emigration were widespread.

What did Northern Irish Catholics resent the most?
They were not happy that they were treated like second class citizens compared to the Protestant population of Northern Ireland. This led to their search for civil rights in the late 1960s.
Are you a immigrant if you come from southern Ireland?
An immigrant is someone coming from a country other than the one that they are now in, usually with a requirement for documentation, like a visa, to enable them access to the country they are now in. In the context of Ireland, someone from the Republic of Ireland (the proper term for what people call southern Ireland) living in Northern Ireland, would not be considered an immigrant. Someone from the Republic of Ireland going to some other countries could be regarded as an immigrant. It depends on where they are going.
How did immigrants contribute to the conflict between Catholics and protestants in northern Ireland?
There was a big conflict in Northern Ireland, the part of the island of Ireland which is still in the UK. It was about whether they should stay in the UK, or join up again with the rest of Ireland. The majority of Protestants belonged to the Unionist parties who want to stay with Britain but the Catholics were mostly members of the Nationalist parties whowant to join with the Republic of Ireland. They are no longer fighting, but there is still some tension between Nationalists and Unionists.
Why are Great Britain and Ireland such adversaries?
Nowadays Ireland and Britain are not great adversaries. There are good relations between them. Many Irish people live and work in Britain and there are many British people living and working in Ireland. In the past, as Britain was a colonial power and Ireland was under British rule, naturally there would be different kind of relations between the two countries. Nowadays they work together on lots of things, like politics for example. It is only when it comes to things like sport that they are now adversaries.

What religious group in Northern Ireland wants to reunite with the rest of Ireland?

Why the catholics live in diffrent housing estates to the protestants in Ireland?
In most of Ireland that does not happen. Protestants, Catholics and those of other religions live in the same places. It is only a feature in Northern Ireland. Normally each sees themselves as a separate community. Like anywhere in the world, people will go to live with other people that they see as being like themselves. So that is what happens in Northern Ireland. Even in Northern Ireland though, there are places where Catholics and Protestants do live together or close to each other, so it is not completely segregated, as often portrayed or believed to be.
Why did londonderry upset catholics?
Catholics are very mainly nationalists. Nationalists are people who want to keep Ireland as one nation, with no Northern Ireland. This is because Northern Ireland is ruled by the U.K and Nationalists want to break this link. Londonderry is the second town of Northern Ireland and the 'London' part of this name annoys Catholics because it is obviously associated with the U.K. I live in Londonderry and I am a Unionist but the majority of my Nationalist friends simply drop the bit they don't like and call our town, 'Derry'.

Are Irish people collectivists?
Because the Brits invaded into Ireland without concent and the queen stole our l26 counties, Britsish Protestants does not own northern Ireland, the Catholics of Eire own the whole of Ireland, but when the queen stole our 26 counties it caused a lot of wild terrible trouble, and the true facts is the protestants hate the true Irish Catholics, but the Irish Catholics didn't like the prods so there is your anwser, now northern Ireland and Brits out of greed want to join up again with Eire, but this cannot ever happen, so I guess we are voting no to your fiscal treaty and no to northern Ireland they are with the Brits and can live and stay like Brits, and the real Eire people can live independent from harm and peace.
