Happy St. Patty's from Cleveland. Outside of Savannah, Georgia we're ranked #2 in the U.S. for our festivities on this fine day. Only reason Savannah wins is their open container laws on River street. If we were allowed to do that here, this entire city would burn down in one massive party.
Saint Patrick was a God-fearing, Bible-believing Christian. I don't know how you blokes get green beer and debauchery out of that, but oh well. May God have mercy on us all.

Friar Tuck was also a God fearing, Bible-believing man of the cloth...
Oh but it's perfectly okay for him to take a cheap shot at Jesus, and nobody bats an eye.
Frickin pathetic.
You need to delete Kevin's iremark too, Bert.
No, your post was a very personal attack -- and frankly, if Don had seen the image he probably would have locked you down for a while. I'm not kidding.

Originally St. Partrick's day was a religious feast day but in the early 20th century it was made into a secular public holiday. Also along with the law that made it a holiday they made a law that closed all the pubs on the 18th. So people naturally overindulged on the 17th to rebel against what many considered an unjust law. This law was in effect for decades so the overindulgence became the tradition. When the holiday became a world wide holiday people originally mimicked the Irish and their overindulgence of specifically Irish liquors for that cultural connection. Irish liquor soon became any liquor. The answer is that the overindulgence is the tradition of the secular celebration of the holiday and has nothing to do with the religious holiday except they share a name. The religious tradition didn't become the secular tradition, they are two different things.
Michael, settle down man. It was not a cheap shot at Jesus. By all appearances, Jesus was a down to earth guy. Not some holy roller. He spent his days tweaking the holy rollers. That's what he would be doing if he was here today. So keep rolling, keep rolling.
If the PM you sent was the same as what you posted, no big deal. It actually made me smile. I have the feeling maybe you left something out, but I had no problem with what you sent.
It was not my intent to start a war with you. I thought my comment was light enough to avoid that. But there was an element of seriousness to it as well. This thread was intended to celebrate how many people around the world celebrate the holiday. Your comments were inconsistent with that spirit.
