I covered the topic of Saint George and Patrick along with ethnic-religious cleaning by stealth in a previous blog.

I reiterate that any truly unbiased analysis of historical data indicates that Saint George’s day is nothing more than a counterfeit Christian celebration, based on much earlier indigenous Pagan tradition. However, I am reminded that today is Saint Patrick’s Day so here are a few thoughts on this tradition.
Similarities exist between Saint George and Patrick with Ireland’s Saint Patrick’s Day and Christian subversion of more ancient truths.
Laughable claims that Saint Patrick drove the snakes from Ireland are extremely ludicrous.
Ireland thawed out the last time only 15,000 years ago. Since that era, 12 miles of cold water in the Northern Channel separate Ireland from Scotland, which does harbour a few species of snakes. Ireland however has no snakes because they simply cannot get there.
Snakes referred to in the Saint Patrick myth are not meant in the precise sense, but refer to the native Pagan people of the land. Saint Patrick (his well-promoted religious influence) drove the Pagan Celts out of Ireland and this particular snake myth displays this agenda of religious hate against the native spiritual ethos very well.
Celebrating on Saint Patrick’s Day with drinking and much frolicking ironically marks the spread of xenophobic Christianity throughout Ireland and the suppression and conversion of the native Celtic peoples.
Both George and Patrick are deeply emblematic of a type of religious – based ethnic cleansing that would be seen as outrageous intolerance in today’s society.
Are you honestly thinking for yourself? Alternatively, are you just like the rest of the well-indoctrinated sheep, permitting ‘others,’ with concealed agendas in pious chapels made by self-righteous men to do it for you?
Our British or Irish spiritual heritage goes back much farther than the pious evangelists would ever have us believe. So folks. grab your shillelagh - walk proudly into the fresh Irish Sea breeze and always remember that your liberty should never be for sale to the highest ecclesiastical bidder...
It marks native Irish folk being manipulated away from their ancestral heritage, their indigenous religions and the devotion to their aboriginal, earth-orientated, deities through ongoing communal and psychological pressure.
Such gross religious colonialism holds nothing positive and is little more than a celebration of ethnic cleansing committed by an aggressive fundamentalist regime.
