this sort of travesty:
http://www.cnn.com/2008/LIVING/wayoflife/02/20/catholic.conflict.ap/index.html
That famous saint named Patrick will have his green-drenched party this year, but it's unclear when the guests are supposed to arrive.
For the first time since 1940, St. Patrick's Day will fall during Holy Week, the sacred seven days preceding Easter.
Because of the overlap, liturgical rules dictate that no Mass in honor of the saint can be celebrated on Monday, March 17, according to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.
But a few Roman Catholic leaders are asking for even more moderation in their dioceses: They want parades and other festivities kept out of Holy Week as well.
Bishop J. Kevin Boland of the Diocese of Savannah, Georgia, wrote to practically every agency in his city, from the Chamber of Commerce to the Board of Education, saying the diocese was changing the date of its celebration this year. In response, the citywide Irish festival was moved to Friday, March 14, when schools will close and bagpipe-driven parties will carry into the streets.
More than half a million people stream into the Southern city for the festival, one of the nation's largest St. Patrick's Day affairs, said Bret Bell, Savannah's public information director. Savannah bars will be open March 17, but no organized events will be held that day, he said.
What? What's this?? Wait a god damn, minute here, that's Irish Christmass, for **** sake you redneck hillbillies....
In New York and Boston, with legendary St. Patrick's events planned by the cities' large Irish communities, bishops are taking a hands-off approach, saying the church has no part in planning civic celebrations.
The Archdiocese of New York, which has St. Patrick as a patron saint, will hold the liturgical celebration for St. Patrick on March 14. Cardinal Edward Egan will then say Mass on Monday, the same day as the parade, and will review the procession from the steps of St. Patrick's Cathedral, archdiocesan spokesman Joseph Zwilling said.
Boston's parade remains set for Sunday, March 16, which is Palm Sunday and the first day of Holy Week.
That's right, Father, know your role as God's tax collector. ******* activist Bishops.

Joph is currently using all his influence in Chicago to try to convince the Church to canonize Casimir Pulaski.

Ok, I admit I had to google him. Touching. No, from the bottom of my heart, let me say with all consideration of of the great sacrifice he made:

It's not my fault that Saint Hedwig's Day never took off.

Our Parade is the Sunday after St. Paddys day.
And unless I continue to drink, I will be attending to my hangover rather than the parade.

Isn't every day you're drunk St. Patrick's Day? Besides, what do you care? If you're not Catholic it's like you're barely Irish.

I'm as Catholic as you, I just don't believe in God or Christ or Cannon Law.
There are really minimal differences in the grand scheme of things.

Cannon Law? Isn't that when Napoleon discovered the Coriolis effect?

Chicago's parade is on March 15th but that's presumably because people actually have jobs and stuff on the 17th.

You can do what they do in Boston and make the 17th "Evacuation Day."

Easter can wait, Irishmen everywhere celebrate.
I'm a fallen Catholic and my middle name is Colleen. (I'm not actually Irish though. Volga German and French, mostly. My parents were going for the alliteration; they wanted another CC to match my sister Carol Christine.) Still, it's good enough to get me free beers in Savannah!

That's a completely legitimate holiday that coincidentally falls on the 17th.
Why do you hate the American Revolution?
