Saint Patrick’s Day (St. Paddy’s Day) is an annual Irish feast and drink holiday celebration that revolves around a day of debauchery and hedonism the revolves around Saint Patrick who lived around 400 AD and is celebrated on March 17th.
Traditional fire-side stories associated with St. Patrick included him banishing snakes from Ireland, which turned out to be totally untrue, just a little exaggerated. St. Pat was born in Britain and came from a wealthy mummy and daddy. His daddy was a Christian deacon, probably since deacon’s didn’t have to pay tax (no, seriously, go check out the real history).
At 16, Pat was taken prisoner by a Irish raiders, Arggggg, who were attacking his family’s estate. They took him from Britain to Ireland, Argggg, where he was kept captive for six friggin’ years where he as a shepherd, secluded away from people. Like many desperate people, Pat was lonely and afraid, had no friends or video games so he turned to GOD!!! and becoming a Christian.. then escaped captivity. See what prayin’ to God can get you?
Well, God spoke to young Christian Pat, in a dream of course, telling him it was time to leave Ireland and go back to Britain where another angel told Pat, in a dream, tells him instead to “go BACK” to Ireland but this time as a missionary. It was at this point that young Pat took to drinking. Eye witness accounts have him saying, in a drunken stuper in the middle of the street yelling up at the sky, shaking his fist, “SON OF A…. you be wantin’ me to what? …. *takes swig from jug* …. hic.. to WHAT? To go back to that friggin’ Ireland? I just got off the bloody ship ya bastar’ didn’t ya see me? LOOK YA Damn Bloody SOT! Da Damn ship’s… hic… ship’s still avast in port! .. hic!… *Shakes fist and takes another swig*” It’s at this point people started following the young prophet Pat.
So, young Pat decides to study up on being a missionary, soon after learning about the tax free clause, and after 15 years, in a 2 year associate program, ol’ Pat becomes a priest and heads back to Ireland to Christianize the heathens as well as to minister to those that are already there.
Since he knew the land, or thought he did from 15 years before, Pat incorporated the local Irish traditional rituals into his lessons of Christianity instead of doing the normal, boring Christian SOP of eradicating the indiginous native Irish beliefs. Pat used bonfires to celebrate Easter since the Irish were used to honoring their gods with fire. He also superimposed the Irish sun symbol, onto the Christian cross to create the “Celtic cross.”
Even there were some Christians already on the island, most Irish were happily practicing a nature-based pagan religion that centered around a rich tradition of oral legend and myth.
