    On a serious note, however, I must state that indeed, neo-paganism is becoming quite popular; what it has to do with ancient Celtic religion? I have no idea.
    Its attempting to to gain legality or authorization by using Celtic religion...often with some hilarious results. Read on a forum about a guy who visited a neopagan store which also had courses on Celtic religion. He left quickly after the instructor said celtic with an s not k and told how the Celts revered a Potato goddess...

    Perhaps he was refering to the Scottish football club, we don't know! But isn't the potato originally from the Americas?

    That was actually the point. No potatoes back in 272 BC. Nor tomatoes or chocolate (especially considering these are actually Aztec words)...

    Tomatoes as well? Interesting. Imagine how bland British, Irish and Belgian cooking would be without potatoes and how bland Spanish and Italian cooking would be without tomatoes? Also how healthy my heart would be without chocolate.
