Legend has it that St. Patrick drove all of the snakes out of Ireland and into the sea using the power of his faith. - Fox News
A Dublin man is hoping for some of that power for himself after he reportedly fell victim of a venomous snakebite – believed to be the first time such an event has been recorded in Ireland.
Curious, as Ireland is indeed known to be free of these slithery critters. Of course the “Dublin man” who was bit owned a puff adder “most commonly found in Morocco and Western Arabia, the puff adder is known to cause the most snakebite fatalities in Africa.”
Let’s review: St. Patrick drives the snakes our of Ireland in the 5th century and the Emerald Isle remains snake free until the Irish begin to take in “persons in need of international protection” from areas known to be native to poisonous snakes. Hmmm. It’s either that or the fact that Ireland is becoming as Godless as the rest of the world.
Either way, there’s no doubt that snakes have been sighted in Ireland for quite awhile now.
Make no mistake: poisonous snakes are more dangerous than the Coronavirus.

Even the real snakes are back in Ireland! Sign of the times.
The other part of the legend is that if the snakes ever return to Ireland, that’s it. Ballgame over. God has had enough.
That’s the legend, for what it’s worth.
No doubt, that Obama was the first one to appear! This one that bit someone was probably smuggles in, as the left gets more weird and extreme, and never follow any rules.
All hell will break loose, if God has had enough, however, it doesn’t appear Ireland is the worst of the snakes...he should start in middle east.
“Legend has it that St. Patrick drove all of the snakes out of Ireland...”
Yeah, to America...the Kennedys, Daleys, Murphy CT and NJ etc.
Cute story
