Entry: St. Patrick and All Those Potatoes Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/st_patrick_and_all_those_potatoes#485 Post contents: It should be remembered that St Patrick was sent to Ireland to bring the Celtic Christians into line with Rome. There were many Christians in Ireland in the fifth century. Not until the Synod of Whitby did Rome prevail. As for the English presence, it is convenient to forget that the Irish King Diarmuid invited the English to Ireland. The so-called 800 years of oppression began with this invitation.
