Video: For the Love of Catholic Ireland

Made in Ireland . . . a video with real love for the Real Ireland—as opposed to an Ireland largely manufactured for the agendas of Consumer Capitalism.

This deeper, truer Ireland evolved organically over centuries, as opposed to a society, which like never before, has now been massively shaped and imported from elsewhere—above all by Anglo-American cultural and economic liberalism.

As the video suggests: Patrick Pearse’s Greatest Nightmare. And this deep Ireland cannot be separated from her people’s profound Catholic and Christian traditions and heritage.

Now, last time I spoke of pouring my lifeblood into this video . . .

As I said then, the video comes in a Short Version (48 minutes) and a Long Version (over three hours!). And for reasons alluded to last time, it really is something of a personal milestone for me.

Now, the Long Version is above. The Short Version is below. Having spoken of this video in the last post (again: here) I will not write too much more now.

I will however paste in a Table of Contents for the Long Version. Note—this comes from YouTube where you will find Timestamps that operate!

However, if you do not go to YouTube and watch the video here, you will be spared all those hideous YouTube advertisements!

I know which route I prefer.

(I wish these ads were not imposed on me—but at least the videos can be watched at this site without them!)

Anyway, herewith the Table of Contents for the Long Version above:
