Only 32% in Scotland are Church of Scotland - Presbyterian. 16% are Catholic. 43% don't identify with any religion. So get your facts straight before you brush all of Scotland as Presbyterian.
Well those 43percent will have a presbyterian way of life.
I said Scotland is more liberal than Ireland, not that it is liberal (I think it is though). Scotland is left-wing though, in a political sense - considerably more so than England.
They're very culturally similar. Not sure what you mean by "more in common". I've lived in Ireland and I've been to Scotland a couple of times. Language? Religion? Food? All pretty much the same. I think it rains more in Scotland. That's about it.
Religion? Well Ireland is mostly Catholic and Scotland Protestant.
Historically and culturally Scotland has more in common with England, well most of it.

I don't think it is that simple. Scotland has just as much in common with Ireland as it does with England. Scotland and Ireland both share a similar culture. Both Irish and Scots Gaelic are from Old Irish. This is why both countries have names using the Mc/Mac prefix. They also share a similar music tradition and a lot of their folktales are the same.
Both were Celtic in the past and both were invaded by England and are now majority English speaking countries.
I think all the countries of the British Isles are connected and have a lot of history and culture in common if truth be known.
Well, it's farther north. If we're comparing say Glasgow with Dublin for instance, there'd probably be more rain in Glasgow. Relax. Nothing to get your knickers in a twist about.

Did my question sound like I had my knickers in a twist?
Yeah, kinda. But let's move on. Not a huge difference overall between the two, imo.

They are not religious so why would they have a so-called presbyterian way of life??
