PAISLEY IN TRAGEDY SHOCK! Ian Paisley was on this tour of a interdenominational school and he asked the classroom: Give me an example of a tragedy. A little Presbyterian girl stood up and said: If a person fell off a tree while playing, that would be a tragedy. Very good, said Paisley, but that would not be a tragedy, that would be an accident! A little Protestant boy stood up and said: If a busload of children crashed off a cliff, that would be a tragedy! Another good one, answered Ian, but that would not be a tragedy, that would be a great loss. A little Catholic boy stood up and said, If you were in a plane flying over this country, Mr Paisley, and it blew up, then that would be tragedy! Excellent, said Ian feeling very chuffed with himself, but how would you know that was a tragedy? Well, said the young lad, it wouldnt be a great loss and it certainly wouldnt be a feckin accident!
