As a catholic and male of moderately proud Irish descent, it is mandatory that I post something very very Irish!
And so..
The Irish Image Blitz!
St. Patrick, an Englishman who became the patron saint of Ireland. An amazing man with a fantastic lexicon of myths that have surrounded him:
He drove the snakes out of Ireland (allegorically, they meant the pagans)
He used the shamrock to teach the pagans about the Holy Trinity
His staff, the Bachal Isu, was the actual staff of Christ and was presented to Patrick during a vision of Christ himself.
He converted the grandson of the great Irish legend, Finn MacCumhal, to Christianity.
and many many more.
He's like a Catholic Superhero...
And continuing our Irish Image Blitz!
