OK, so I have a big question...Why can't a good protestant Irish guy like me join the Ancient Order of Hibernians???

I spoke with them at the highland games in Greenville last year, and they informed me of this, but why should they keep excluding protestants? I mean I'm not offended, just confused that they don't include all Irish loving people that can prove their Irish heritage...Especially since Irish patriots like Wolfetone and Robert Emmet were protestants...oh well, just thought I'd ask if anyone knew why.
