	St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin, formally known as The National Cathedral and Collegiate Church of Saint Patrick, Dublin or in the Irish language as Árd Eaglais Naomh Pádraig, is the larger of Dublin's two Church of Ireland Cathedrals.
		The present building, the largest church in Ireland, was built between 1191 and 1270, though a major rebuilding in the 1870s, necessitated by the belief that the cathedral was in imminent danger of collapse, means that much of the current building and decoration dates from the Victorian era.
		From 1783 until 1871 the cathedral served as the Chapel of the Most Illustrious Order of Saint Patrick, members of which were the Knights of St. Patrick.

	Patrick, St. Biography
		Patrick was born in a village that he identified as Bannavem Taberniae, probably near the sea in southwestern Britain.
		Patrick's family seems to have been one of some social standing, but, in spite of the clergy in it, he did not grow up in a particularly religious or intellectual environment.
		Criticism of Patrick's work came to him from Britain; his seniors, he records, "brought up sins against my laborious episcopate." The basis for such charges is unknown; they did include his betrayal by a friend to whom Patrick had much earlier confessed a sin that he had committed at the age of 13.

	St Patrick's Flag
		The origin of the St Patrick's Cross has been traced to the establishment of the Knights of Saint Patrick in 1783, when the red saltire on white was included in the Order's regalia.
		Another article reported that 'the Cross of St. Andrew the Scotch saint is to honour the Irish order of St. Patrick, by being inserted within the star of the order' and described this as 'a manifest insult to common sense and to national propriety'.
		In fact, this would appear to have been a very early example of a commemorative coin: 461 is one of the dates reported for the death of Saint Patrick and it seems likely to me that the farthing was a special issue struck to mark the 1,000th anniversary of the saint's death.

	Saint Patrick's Church: Bibliography of Saints (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Care must be taken when using this particular book, since the feast days of many of the saints were adjusted when the Roman calendar was revised; however, the descriptions of the lives of the saints and, especially, the reflection which follows each can provide profitable material for meditation.
		While many saints became "holy" only after the death of a spouse, or lived as celibates within the bonds of marriage, still others lived normally in the married state and still managed to lead a life of holiness, which often sanctified others as well as themselves.
		Most of the best-known women saints are given at least a mention in the narrative of the book, which provides an excellent background on the history of the Church and Western civilization.
