Saint Aldebert Of Ireland


Recommended Posts

Uncle Donald is planning to file a petition with the vatican for the canonization of the eighth century Irish missionary Aldebert, much overlooked because of scurrilous complaints by his English rival Boniface, and in that conection he is preparing an illustrated history of Aldebert's accomplishments. Shown here is his teaching a Frisian heathen the story of St. Brendan.

According to Boniface these Irishmen "degraded their Christian profession by participation in the idolatrous rites of Thor and Wodenr in the dense, primeval forests" where Woden, Thor, and the other deities of the Teutonic pantheon might well seem alive.

Any assistance from the membership would be welcome.
