    Default St.Patricks Day

    7 days

    God Bless the Irish and there rampant alcoholism

    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    I'm not Catholic, and only partially related to the (quickly fading) Irish diaspora. However St. Patrick's day is still worth celebrating.

    As much as i love getting drunk and fighting and enjoying music about getting drunk and fighting, I have some really big issues with celebrating a holiday that is all about how some canonized fellow chased all non catholic people from his sodden isle.

    So I just drink to the prosecuted pagans instead.

    Nonsense on so many levels. For a start Patrick did not persecute the pagans, in fact it was the other way around (he was brought to Ireland as a slave after being captured by pagan pirates). Plus he wasn't even a Roman Catholic (I know, he wasn't a Prod either).

    DUP love St. Paddy as well, they just think he was a Proddy. I'm guessing Postino is a Dawkins fan...

    I wouldnt worry about it too much he wasnt even the first christian missionary to Ireland there is a fair amount of archaeological evidence and plenty circumstancial written/oral evidence for far earlier communities before Patrick arrived.

    The benefits of christian belief were what ended paganism in Ireland things like the written word etc were eagerly snapped up and Hibernocised
