Ireland sees revival of ancient Mass Rocks tradition

Addthis Irish priests celebrated mass at Mass Rocks in all of Ireland s 26 dioceses in honor of Irish Catholics who practiced their faith in secret when it was illegal to do so under British rule.  All expressions of the Catholic faith were prohibited in Ireland between the 16th and 18th centuries under the Penal Laws, forcing priests to celebrate mass at secluded outdoor locations.  Priests risked fines, imprisonment, and death for practicing mass, using rocks and boulders as makeshift altars.

In a dissonant attempt to demonise integrated education C Hughes (May 17) seeks to valorise the atavistic myths and half-truths that continue to underpin the Catholic narrative.
