Question: is there such a thing as a, "National Road," in Ireland or is 
that something that calrog made up (much like the non-existent, "US 
Federal Route")?

Please accept the appologies of the rest of us here in the USA for the 
way that calrog has presented your nation and its roadways.

And what holiday are you celebrating, there, buddy? Oh, maybe *SAINT*
Patrick's Day? A Catholic Religious holiday? Aren't you the guy who
took great pains to actually edit one of your videos to "censor" a
religious reference, and then make sure everyone knew it? In a country
where religion is a major part of the culture? Aren't you a devotee of
Che? I'll bet HE didn't celebrate Saint Patrick's Day. And do you
think for one goddam second the Irish give a flying fuck about your
shitstain of a site?

> http://wwtl.(dis)info> Photographs > Europe > Ireland

I really like how you set that up. Don't give the *direct* link. Make
goddam sure you get all the click-throughs you can get from anyone
who's stupid or uninformed enough to visit your little abortion on the
web.

Isn't that wonderful. You know some Celtic names. You got them off a
map, I'm sure. It'd be even more wonderful if you actually went over
to Ireland, and tried pulling some poser shit like that, and got your
ass kicked. As long as it was on video. I'd give you money to see
that. Your Alexa rating would skyrocket. Fuck You. Saint Patrick
should shove his staff up your ass and see if he can drive the snakes
out of you. You're such a Planned Parenthood Poster Child.

No, he got that right, his bullshit only applies to the US. Just
another way to disrespect the country of his birth. Too bad there
isn't a draft. CalRog could use a stint in the military. It'd make a
man of him, or he'd surrender to the enemy, and we'd be free of his
stupid ass.

 Oh dear me! AND you got your facts wrong! (Sorry about starting with a 
preposition!). St Patrick was an Early Christian. As such he was neither 
Catholic nor Protestant. For your further information, St Patricks Day is a 
celebration which includes everyone, regardless of religion!

Some Irish Protestants have a tradition of claiming St. Patrick as a
kind of proto-protestant who operated outside of papal control.  This
dates back to Ussher at least and I have heard Iain Paisley Senior and
Junior say this.  It looks like things have softened and become more
sensible lately though with Paisley now suggesting that St. Patrick's
day be a public holiday North and South.  Catholics have also had a
habit of somehow assuming he was catholic despite this all being 1000
years before the reformation.

Not so much Patrick as Colmcille, who was Donegal enough to rebel
against everyone.

It *is* a public holiday north and south.

How foolish of those fifth century Catholics not to anticipate the
split.

Irish Christians /did/ anticipate the split, but they had one of their own. 
They were unsound about the date of Easter.

HEH!! - Easter was, and still is, a removable feast, entirely dependent upon 
the phases of the moon. Everyone knows that, surely!

It's more complicated than that. The precise date of Easter has always
been a contentious issue amongst christians. If memory serves, it is one
of the reasons why the Eastern orthodox church broke away from the western
church.

All this tells you a lot about the religious mind-set per se, I always
feel.

I reject your slur against the Continuity Catholics

Not at all. Just a bit Eastern.

Oh really? You know, Reading is FUNdamental, Seamus O Dogbreath.
Nowhere in my statement did I make any reference as to Saint Patrick's
religion. However, he was a bishop in the Early Church(http://
tinyurl.com/cpernl). That might kind of make him Catholic, I'd think.
It would be kind of hard for him to be a Protestant, as the
Reformation began a good thousand years after his death. Don't know
why you'd even bring that up, unless you don't have a fucking clue
what you're talking about

Oh, and from religionfacts.com(http://tinyurl.com/no39t):
'Unlike its American counterpart, St. Patrick's Day in Ireland has
primarily been a religious festival.' So CalRog is exploiting a
religious holiday(I didn't specify nationality, either) to promote his
shitstain of a website while simultaneously deriding all religion. Or
at least any form of Christianity. I think they call that hypocrisy.
Compounding it all is that he dredges up a sockpuppet(that is if it
ain't old CalRog himself) without the brains to pour piss out of a
boot.
