Saint Patrick's controversy?

Change Saint Patrick's Day to Shamrock Day?

Have you heard anything about this? This article says some are easing into the new name for the March 17 observation of Irish heritage in order to not offend.

NOT OFFEND?

What about the offense to the Irish, particularly Irish Catholics, for whom this is an actual holy day, honoring the patron saint of the country?

I could go on about how ridiculous this is, but the idea is so lame that I choose to believe nobody is taking it seriously.

One thought though ... Don't proponents realize the shamrock was utilized by Saint Patrick to demonstrate the idea of the Holy Trinity? Whoa, they might want to choose a less offensive name.
