    Lovely documentary. Saint Columba was from my grandads' tribe, the O'Neil of Donegal. He was born on our septs land- O'cannain-near Garten. O'Neil were first Tribe that accepted Saint Patrick when he returned with the Gospel.

    This is my favourite video that gives the history of Celtic spirituality and how it came across the North of England. I love the part where the man from North Umbria explains their ethic and value in the current culture of both church and society--found at 1.08 on the video. So rich all the way through. This is a real gift to those seeking true deep spiritual connection to God while being real in faith in every day life!!

    The fact that the druids, who’s council the King trusted with all thing’s spiritual, social, political and wartime concluded that Saint Patrick’s faith was permitted to be taught is eye opening. This tell us all who the druids really were.

    What a great idea, and what a great execution. There is such a huge Revival into this era of the church. Aidan St Patrick Columbo etc right up to the Synod of Whitby where Easter was given in error. The Full Moon of March is True Easter for 7 days

    Patrick was a Welsh man from South Wales and actually Christianity had survived in Wales after the Roman Empire had left. When Augustus cam e to Christianise the Saxons he met with 7 British bishops at Aust on the Severn. Why is Wales left out of this history as there many churches in early England . dedicated to St David. The pilgrimage to St Davids was more important than Canterbury but never mentioned.

    This is interesting, but like many documentaries out there, it does not paint an accurate picture of history (really wish people would stop getting their historical information from documentaries and the "History" channel).
    Patrick did not bring Christianity to Ireland. There were already Christians on the island before he arrived. In fact, there is much evidence to suggest that some of the apostles visited Ireland during their lifetime. Patrick instead helped to organize Christianity on the island according to a more Roman model, and bring in more converts. But he did not bring Christianity to Ireland for the first time.
    Although Ireland was located on the furthest reaches of the "western world," it was neither isolated nor backwards. Trade brought people to and from Ireland, as well as educational institutions that were set up there and other interests.
    It would be difficult to imagine an intellectually curious culture engaging in trade with other regions remaining ignorant of Christianity until the time of Patrick. The Irish liked to know what was going on in the world, and were not living some barbaric, backwards insular life.

      Excellent point! The simplicity of your assessment is too easily overlooked. I have to wonder if the Druids had proto-Christian beliefs as well.

      @@samluke8121 Thank you, :) From what I understand, the pre-Christian Irish Celts were very "Trinitarian" in outlook and this is one likely reason why they took to Christianity with so much vigor. They already looked at the world with "Trinitarian" eyes - Christianity just explained that Trinity even further. As a result the Celtic Irish were always very devoted to the Trinity.

      @@m.e.3614 Yes! Of course! Tue idea that whole populations were converted through some scheme of unilateral coercion, as some accounts insinuate, is preposterous. The neo-pagans also have, as you may already know, an embarrassingly simplistic view of history. They say, "Nature is my church" yet St. Francis of Assisi would concur that nature is also his church because it represents the wisdom of God.

      @@samluke8121 So true! And they often tend to make the claim that the Irish Gaelic Celts practiced a "creation centered" spirituality, which is farthest from the truth. While the Celts were very in tune with nature, nature was still just the framework (the "building") housing something even greater within. They were always centered on the Trinity and had a deep sense that the natural world that they loved was there not of it's own accord, but of that higher power. Yet they are consistently dumbed down into these "creation centered" people who could not look past the rocks and stones, trees and forests to anything more beyond.
