Quite so. To offer other anecdotal evidence, a couple of months ago
I saw an old war film about the crew of a downed British bomber
trying to escape from Nazi-occupied Holland. The route takes them via
a Catholic church, and there's a debate amongst some of them over
whether they can in good conscience set foot in the place. Would
anyone now (outside Northern Ireland) comprehend of the problem?
