By Fr. Matthew P. Schneider, L.C., Patheos - Today’s abortion referendum put an end to the idea of Catholic Ireland, the Isle of Saints… Ireland has voted by a landslide margin to change the constitution so that abortion can be legalised, according to an exit poll conducted for The Irish Times by Ipsos/MRBI… The poll suggests that the margin of victory for the Yes side in the referendum will be 68 per cent to 32 per cent – a stunning victory for the Yes side after a long and often divisive campaign.
