I wish history was more important in this country. But hey who doesn't love a day to get all dressed in green or be pinched???? I guess the people who hate green...

This is a great article, Alex. Not only is it very historical and educating but it is also entertaining at the same time. I just learned a few more things about St. Patrick. Nice job! Wow!

I really didn't have any idea who he was or why we even give him a holiday. Thank you for filling me in on a great holiday no one really knows about. p.s. I cant stand leprachauns or however you spell it. They creep me out. The funny thing about this article is that you are exactly right.

And who doesnt ? I dont think anyone should be labled as that. But the truth behind it is that we are celebrating a saint who did some good and he deserved a little bit of respect. I dont know where they came up with the drinking but what harm is it to have a little fun once and a while. Really good article!!!!!!!!!!

Its great I love it, just a little confused. HTe only thing I see is that tons of Irish immigrants came to the US in the 1800s. I really don’t understand what led Americans to adopting this holiday.
