150px irish clover St. Patricks Day the true meaning...To those who honor the right and honorable St. Patrick with repeated trips to the bar and brandishing four leaf clovers, the true holiday is the feast of St. Patrick, one of the patron saints of Ireland.

A brief definition of his most well known deed was in forcing all the snakes off the island of Ireland.  But actually his real fame comes from using a shamrock (like that pictured here) to explain the concept of the Christian Holy Trinity.  To read more about the religious holiday, read this Wikipedia article.

Now if you’re more interested in the modern version of the holiday come back to see our next post on St. Patrick’s Day secular celebrations!
