Can't happen quickly enough! I'm a Humanist, and this is almost a tenet of faith for us, but I think even if I was devoutly religious I would take the same view, as I believe that both the State and the Church are corrupted by cosying up together. This however has never been the Hierarchy's view- hence the collusion between the RC Hierarchy and the British Govt to suppress the Irish Language in the early 1800s, and Cardinal JC McQuaid's close relationship with Dev in the 1900's. As far as the Hierarchy is concerned, if there's any power being handed out, they'll take it. Even if it's Mussolini or Hitler doing the handing out, it still seems OK
