Well, I suppose we Americans should thank the genocidal evils of the English anti-Catholic bigots—their callous cruelty forced a lot of great Irish to immigrate to these United States...
...my Dublin born paternal grandmother for one—oh,what a huge anglophile she was;)
That was Irish on Irish cruelty. Remember that there was an Irish noble class as well. They exerted the same level of cruelty over their own no matter whether under human-sacrificing Druidism or either brand of organized Christianity. And it was their own will, too.
BTW, before the Irish named themselves and the island that the Romans called
Hibernia after the false goddess
Éire (aka Ériu, daughter of Mac Gréine or “son of the sun” in English—recognize the connection to Ba’al? whereas Éire was an earth goddess like Gaia), did you know that they called themselves by the name
Britani . . . ?
