So it's Saint Patrick's Day.

No holiday could possibly be less on my radar screen than Saint Patrick's Day. I'm not Irish or Irish-American, and I'm not Catholic, and I don't find the spread of Christianity to Ireland (or anywhere) to be something I want to celebrate.

I'm not wearing a stitch of green, and if any of you try to pinch me (what is the origin of that anyway?) I'll... well I'll... I'll glare at you.

ah... so it is a metaphorical re-enactment of the spread of Christianity.

(yup, I am reserving my spot in hell ;p)

Not at all! Since when has Christianity been shy about proselytizing in the last thousand years?

(I get to reincarnate; no hell for me! woo!)
