Without digging too much, here’s an example of personal family history that includes specifics. http://www.pagancentric.org/?p=135
Christianity is such a large force out there, it’s hard to wade thru that info on this hand-held device, to find more sources. As evidenced in so many countries around the world with weakened indiginous culture trying to exist next to white culture brought in by missionaries, Christian crusaders were really good at destroying evidence of anything non-Christian, as a way of “helping.”

More sources to come.

While this sounds quite plausible it would be nice if the sources were cited. I think it’s pretty difficult to verify what really happened back then and there are many contradicting legends/stories about St. Patrick. I definitely believe that Ireland and much of the world would have been better off left to their pagan ways though.

Hi Adriene

Sadly Patrick was far from the only one. St Olaf, who converted Norway, was a brutal shit. But instead of a wake, perhaps you should think about reclaiming St Patrick’s day in the name of one of the old Celtic gods. Reverse the Christian strategy and simultaneously turn it into something positive.

I know nothing about the pre-Christian gods of Ireland, but if you suggest one, I’ll raise a glass to him or her this evening.

I did find Little Birchy – right around the time I started my new job and therefore didn’t need to add much more to her pages.

Absolutely!
It can be hard to change focus in our lives when things were working well and we are forced to do things differently. There must be something that can be changed, an aperture of the soul that can be adjusted so as to continue to focus – in many cases, the new creativity is more complex and satisfying than what was there before the forced change.
We are such creatures of habit that sometimes that soul aperture must be adjusted for us.

I got injured a couple of years ago and it altered my creativity and life. I just realized that i just needed to change my focus. Its the same me and the same vision just a slightly different filter if you know what I mean.
