    I've been to Ireland three times in my life with my Granny. Of all the beautiful and wonderful (and sad, tragic) things I saw, I gotta say RTE really made an impression on me. I would legit watch these documentaries instead of going to the pub (this was like 2009 before I could stream it here in AZ).

      I read his confession a wee while ago, I could really connect with him.
      Suprisingly enough it isn't read much if at all in school in Ireland, sadly.

      @@IrishEagIe Ya it's wild how much and yet so little it has. I love it and sadly we don't get in to it until uni and that's only if you get in to History.

    St. Patrick, with the help of the Holy Spirit, brought true civilization to Ireland. While the majority of the world were kinslaying, shaking feather-bone totems and sacrificing people, the Irish were praying in monasteries and cultivating learning through writing.

    I've always wanted to see Ireland Maureen O'Hara was from there and she was a favorite actress of mine and I've loved the stories and legends from that country and I wear green every time March rolls around

    I had found out that blue would have been his color but green is good, Happy St. Padrich's day Patrick is the English or Anglican version of his name

      Blue is the colour of the high nobles in Ireland. It's possible.

    Well, if you're going to walk barefoot over sharp stones, that's not faith, that's masochism.
    Everyone picks on snakes even though Yahweh used the serpent of brass to heal the Israelites.
    In Proverbs it says "Be as wise as a serpent and as patient as a dove."
    The shamrock was used by older faiths to show the triple nature which was considered powerful in a deity. Some Pagan statues have been found with three leafed plants on their foreheads. Statues of Pagan deities have been depicted with three faces.
    If the Irish Druids had become so corrupt that they controlled the people they were replaced by the Catholic clergy who were guilty of the same vices.
