A Secular Solution to Ireland’s Troubles

The Irish question could very easily be settled by a complete, final, and irrevocable separation of church and state, the establishment of secular national schools, and exemption of the seventh-day Sabbath observers from the operation of Sunday laws. This to be a part of the constitution of the new Ireland, and to be beyond the power of any Irish parliament to change it. The trouble between Ulster and the other Irish provinces is entirely a religious one, and, as stated above, could be settled by eliminating the religious element of the question, to the vast advantage of the people of Ireland and the British Empire.—The Chicago Israelite. Oct. 19, 1912.
