Greenlantern Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 There must, surely come a certain realisation for these people, when they're a little more worldly wise in life and love, that it's all a complete nonsense?!? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw, do Orangemen all support The Rangers or do you get "Nae time for awe that nonsense" cross community ones? The only Orangeman I know is a Jambo workmate. Used to be a regular and play in the band and so on. He's a decent chap tbqh and rarely talks about it, although I get the feeling he's not really into it anymore. He despises Celtic more than Hibs, make of that what you will. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puffinmuncher Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 why burn an Irish national flag,who is the woman/doll like figure? Could be totally wrong here, but with the flags and the three letters on top of the pile, I'd guess the blonde woman is meant to represent Michelle O'Neill from Sinn Fein. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't tell you initials, I heard from a guy who drank in the same pub as myself who was/fancied himself/claimed to be CSC around about the early 2000's when there was somewhat of a resurgence of casuals. He claimed to know some Section B who apparently told him the story. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of those that were, most supported Motherwell. We had a couple of Airdrie fans and Accies supporter. We also had a few 'nominal' Sevconians. Only me and and 2 others would actively follow follow and we could get back for the monthly lodge meeting if it coincided with a home game but not if it was a trip north or east. So the Rangers/OO link is a bit exaggerated wrt lodge members. I'm pretty sure that the Grand Master of the GOL of Scotland was a Jambo. I certainly wrote a couple of articles for The Orange Torch after I went to Uni and the then editor was also a Hearts man. Anyway, a great day for celebrating the establishment of a constitutional monarchy and avowing the supremacy of parliament. Hope the lads and lassies in loyal orders had a happy and tuneful day out. Never knew you were that way inclined, answers a whole bunch of questions tbqh. Nothing sinister mind you, just your warped view on the world and how you react within it. My mother when she divorced dated a member of the Govan branch back in the mid 70's. She said it was just a lot of guys acting out a scene from the film Life of Brian in the scene where they discuss how to deal with the Romans and what name they should be known by. They don't have the influence in the local community like they used to have with it being orientated with Protestantism and the church. The decline of Christianity from what it was back then has most certainly made an impact in their dwindling numbers and that society as a whole has changed the way we think and which beliefs we chose and have not been indoctrinated into from birth. Nowadays it is more of a gentleman's club is it not? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my last lodge meeting was in 1981. I have said this before and am always happy to discuss it. In Scotland (then) every Orangeman had to be a member of a private lodge. Usual description was Loyal Orange Lodge (number) then (name). In the case of my private lodge it was LOL 328 "Israel's Truth Defenders". On my collarette (not a sash, ya c***s) I had wee silver-looking letters/numbers saying "LOL 328". This is where, I suspect, the confusion comes in. As far as terminology goes/acronyms goes I'd use the following: I was a member of the Orange Order (OO). My private lodge was LOL 328 in Motherwell. I'd never say, "I belonged to the LOL". Israel's Truth Defenders!!! Not sure Martin Luther would have approved, didn't he a thing about burning Jews back in the old Reformation days? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With theological insight like that you should probably stick to talking about cricket 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
