Cork City Councillor Padraig Rice proposes to end prayers and remove crucifix from council meetings for a modern, pluralist republic.
Cork City Councillor Padraig Rice has proposed a motion to end prayers and remove the crucifix from council meetings, stating there is "a time and place for religious worship, and I don't think it is at council meetings." Rice, a Social Democrats councillor, aims to create a modern, pluralist republic with a clear separation of church and state. The motion will be debated during tonight's council meeting.
