Re: The Ungodly Origins of St. Valentine's Day
My brothers hold no love for the Romans either, but they did do one thing right. They didn't let the old ways die. Even your early Christians knew the truth of our teachings. They merely changed the names of them.
When your St. Patrick came to "drive the snakes" from Ireland, he used the symbol of a clover to describe your divine beliefs. He said that the father, son, and holy ghost were but parts of the whole. When the people heard this, they laughed at him. They'd already known this for centuries. Everything in life has its parts that are one. Three is a "holy" number if you will. We are born, we live, then we die. Women are virgin, mother, and crone. The cycles of nature are birth, death, and rebirth.
