Abolish St Patrick's Day! | THE BRENDAN OPTION 068

"I want this vulgar, drink-sodden, bullsh!t that is commonly called St. Patrick's Day to stop so that the celebration of a major Catholic figure in the Irish Catholic experience is not ruined."
Join Fr. Brendan Kilcoyne for episode 068 of 'The Brendan Option' where he suggests "modern" secular Ireland think up its own national holiday and leave St. Patrick's day to be celebrated by the practicing Irish Catholics.
"Bastille Day is a serious bit of kit in terms of a country celebrating its myth... its foundation. What about 'Kilmainham Day'?"

Couldn't agree more. On top of our society's many sins, we always add one more: lying. Pretending we're still somewhat religious when we aren't. I think everyone would be better off if those who don't believe just said so, and saying you were a Catholic actually meant something.

Ireland is a fallen country now and the silence of the bishops is deafening and a major contributing factor

I'm in the US. When I was growing up we celebrated St. Patrick's day with corned beef, cabbage and soda bread and talked about how he converted Ireland, it wasn't a drinking drunk thing, ( until I went to college, I was like oh wow...lol...then I grew up and now it's back to conversion)

Oh Father, I feel the depth of your sorrow. Still, there is the Remnant. We are so fortunate to have you always guiding us to our Blessed Lord and the Blessed Mother.

So well said. It's as you say, a "drink-sodden" Party Day here in the States. This Party Day--- now become a tradition here --- almost killed our son who thought he was having innocent fun. It ended in tragedy. Kindly say a prayer for him. And for us.

Agree 100,000%. Abolished the sham fake so-called St.Patricks Day festival. Once they festivalised it some years ago, that, for me, was the tin hat on it. I remember a time of youth when the adults would wear a large cluster of shamrock on their clothing, and we children, would have special St.Patricks Day cloth badges pinned to our clothing, as we attended mass. There after there was the parade in town. That was it. The spiritual aspect took precedence; the parade second place, and that was it. Done and dusted. Now, it's simply a vulgar profits engine, or at least in normal times that is what it had become.

My son Patrick was due on March 17, thirty two years ago, and I had him induced so he wouldn’t be born on St. Paddy’s and end up an alcoholic. He’s spent his whole life in Washington DC and it’s the main thing he’s grateful for-not being a St. Paddy’s baby. He hates the whole thing. It killed his Catholic identity.

I'm sorry to hear that St. Patrick's Day has become this. When I lived in Northern Ireland, pre 1994, St. Patrick's Day was a Holy Day and we all went to church. Right enough, it did give the Catholics a "day off Lent" because it was a Holy Day. But I've always felt proud to tell Americans that Ireland treated ST. Patrick's Day as a day to go to Mass.
