In Praise of Pro-Life Donegal


Although it is not certain my people trace their roots to County Donegal, Ancestry says based on my DNA results there's a good chance that they do.

In reading about Donegal in Wikipedia, I learned that the people have a reputation for  "conservative and contrarian." Yeah, that sounds like people with whom I might be connected. If you tell me to do something my instinct is to consider not doing it, or at least to raise objections.

And then I hit this line: "In 2018, Donegal was the only county in Ireland to vote against repealing the 8th Amendment, which banned access to abortion."

They voted pro-life! Bingo!

Pax et bonum
