Saint Patrick was just a missionary. He probably did little
to improve the lives of the Irish and instead came to the island to fill people
up with mysticism. He never drove out the snakes because there never were any
to begin with.
Many of us celebrate this day because we are all or part
Irish. Some of us support Irish nationalism and the Irish cause, with
the symbol of the Starry
Plough.
For many people this holiday is just an excuse to get drunk.
Maybe that is OK too. Don't forget to drink an Irish Car Bomb, an Irish Stout
or (yuck) green beer.
