Gully is indeed a Protestant, specifically a Calvinist. That he is also not religious is not terribly relevant in an Irish context.

Reminds me of a joke I heard once. A man in Ireland is stopped and asked if he is Catholic or Protestant. He replies that he is an atheist. His inquisitor then asks him if he is a Catholic atheist or a Protestant atheist.

The original formulation is funnier: it is specifically Northern Ireland (and often specifically Belfast), often 'Catholic' and 'Protestant' are replaced with 'Taig' and 'Prod'... and the word 'atheist' is replaced by 'Jew'.
