awful…

Several of my relatives were Magistrates in the old days in the West of Ireland. They were assimilated and saw themselves a British /Irish , mixed religion Catholic and C of I. We have stories of a woman having an amputated hand that was used to stir butter and when she did she had more butter than everyone else, also another with a knot spell that was used to block fertility in animals and humans and a ball of yarn spell used to shorten the life of the cursed person. This was late 19th century and early 20th. century.

White CIS Muslim here, you know they were just murder monks.

Not necessarily. I disagree with this comment. Very narrow view of women and christianity.

William Marshal, "The Perfect Knight". He served 5 kings of England.

She's ny 25th great-grandmother. It's good to add character to the names and dates.

Irish temples were the same as the English Templars and the French Templars and the scotch Templars… they were Templars cause they could get up each other.

St. Patrick's real name was Maewyn Succat, He was just one man dressed as anyone else so didn't bring a religion but good news to Ireland. People really need to learn history before assuming things.

Misleading Woman and her Mundane Stories, boring and off topic, shame

st patrik >>> nar not so much

I am hearing that the widely accepted account of the wholesale massacre of Jerusalem during the first crusade is incorrect. I am told it was Turkish propaganda revived by anit-Catholics during the Reformation. If anyone has time, it might be worth revisiting this part of history and pulling up comparative accounts.

Also, extremely simplified historical account. The knights invited to come to Ireland are nothing to do with anglo westbrits that stalk the halls of history dept nowadays

Best fighters in history. Except maybe the Hospitalliers at Malta.

The first Crusade was largely Franks, not Norman’s. The pilgrims being mugged and murdered (as well other oppression) was what finally started the crusades. Corn wouldn’t come tu Europe until after Spanish contact in the Americas in the 1500s. The king of Portugal actually protected the Templars there, there remains an order under a different name with continuity to the Portuguese Templars.

Im sick of the lies.....yous know your dates are all lies.... the vail has been lifted onyou all

Academia at its finest "retelling" history and academia knows everything because they have a piece of paper that makes them think they know something. No leprechauns is saying Ireland has no history before Christianity only remember the saints in Christianity. Thats all folks... Thank you 2nd Ariel..clicking off

Ireland weren't invaded by Romans

✨ A very *disappointing talk, full of inaccuracies, poorly researched & it's delivery brutally hotchpotch* (Certainly from an 'Academic') It's a shame, given it was delivered in Kilkenny, where the *real story of Alice Kepler (Kepplier, Kyteler - there's several similar surnames,depending on the source) took place & would have been much more interesting to hear* - being set in early 1200's when the Church had a powerful role in society but also a very difficult time trying to eradicate ancient ways. *That last story didn't make sense, it had part of the Bluebeard story but the speaker contradicted herself & seemed to make up most of the rest as she went along* .Why were the sisters asking to stay in the witches house? Was the odd mother the witch? The cat? *Of all the stories in our wonderful Irish Heritage, that was a strange bit of a story to tell...and not quite finish* .. (& not one iv heard of before but for the very not Irish story, Bluebeard)

*@johnpurcell7572* ✨ You are clearly confusing ancient, ancient Irish history, mythology & folklore with relatively modern (1800 onward) history as well as the history of the Catholic church in Ireland. Iv explained how in a longer post in the replies.

The term myth was used to delegitimize and invalidate Indigenous oral history. Academic discrimination his based on a colonial & Christian agenda

Paleageus is a condemned heretic who taught a different doctrine; literally a works based salvation. Wrong on the divine right…did you learn Irish Catholicism from Cromwell?

The numbers of “witches” prosecuted were much lower in all of Catholic Europe. Heresy is unorthodox belief that endangers the soul. Also missed the concept of demonstrating a gods favor through protection. These are basic points

Leprechauns ate very much REAL...LOST ME JUST NOW bye...

Thanks so much; it is so important to get the context and background of this story which most people in Kilkenny know something about, but not the finer details. It is great to have this resource now and to be able to revise our views about it. Still as relevant as ever.

Once again, there is this white washing of how horrible the Church was in its ‘conversion’. Do you really think that the Church was so kind back in that time or any other? Tired of this push to erase horrible shit don’t by Christianity and well as Islam.

I am so loving this talk. Thank you!

"The meek shall inherit the Earth" was used against people, however, the truer meaning means that those who help others, live simply, are not ruled by the oppressors or ego, etc will inherit the Earth; in essence, kind-hearted, selfless ( but not foolish), community oriented in balanced, egalitarian ways will inherit the Earth ( not the oppressors, elitists, oligarchs, etc).

Leprechauns are a reality when you’ve seen one, they are a reality…. know all 3:03

Heard of Maggie Lanigan from Carrickshock she used foretell winners of Hurling Matches

Surely you must know The Little Mermaid was a piece of folk lore collected by Hans Christian Anderson in early 19th century How odd to imply this was a Disney story that was updated 🙄

We is it all these Yanks love trying to tell us of our history etc 🤦‍♂️ its beyond ridiculous, plus its a completely controlled narrative

Christianity did NOT offer women status options. The nunnery was a punishment for women - a version of honor 'disappearances.' Women dreaded the convent - grim, ascetic, loveless. Women as midwives, healers, rulers, and even fighters had much more opportunity under Old Religion - and ALL of those options were banned under Roman Christian rule. Women were literally executed in numbers for practicing medicine or just being assertive. The fact that this did not happen in Eire shows you how different the people are.

You're mistaken about Eirinn women and Christianity. Brehon Law in Eire gave women higher status and more rights than just about anywhere else in Europe, while Christianity subjected women complete to paternalism, under the Pope. Christianity had so little to offer that they had to paganize their message and fold Old Religion and rituals - against Torah and a corruption of the faith - in order to sell it to Northern Europe. Mediterranean cultures oppressed women more than Northern European, where women are more prominent in lore, in medicine (witches), and as rulers. You don't have any of those three in the Mediterranean. You're wrong - Ireland converted because their kings converted and pushed it, just like the rest of Europe, and it was a power grab sold under the ticker of "change and better future."

The yankee accent insulting us with "i know leprechauns arent real" was when i finally exited the video.

Oh auto play what pure retardium have you brought me.

Fascinating lecture. I have had Irish Catholic colleagues in the past. I visited Lough Derg on the West coast of Ireland in the 1990s with my second wife. That area was a site for pilgrims apparently. We spent a week exploring the area. Many of the churches have the stations of the cross in the grounds. I would encourage you to consider learning to meditate. I have practiced transcendental meditation since 1981. I have a Hindu mantra. It has been of great benefit to me. Delivering lectures can be stressful for a variety of reasons but if you have meditated before hand you will be able to deliver your research findings in a calm considered manner. Take care.❤

Thank you for sharing this, much appreciated!! ...XxX...

Leprechauns are real Switching off now

Thanks for the share sister …… please teach me how to catch the Leprechaun 🍀 I think they’re real and the gold too . I’ll split the gold with you …… Be well ✝️

🫂sharing🫂thankYOU

Our ancestors, like all indigenous peoples studied, taught, understood and connected to the mechanisms of nature and our lands, mythology is a personification of our understandings and creation stories 🙏

It's interesting that that last story is a version of Bluebeard with a woman instead of a man having the bloody chamber. I'm not sure I've ever heard a version of that story with a woman before!

Fascinating lecture, thanks for sharing 👏

Thank for your likes.

❤😊

Thanks you. I'm descended from Isabel & Guillaume le Mareschal (William Marshall) through the Butler & Howard families.

Small mistake: King John's son was of course Henry III, not II.

Well done, thank you!

EXCELLENT.

Many thanks Angela , that was amazing, Isabel de clare is my direct 26th great grandmother I am so proud to be descended from such a woman❤
