    • More and more, we see the four leaf clover replacing the Shamrock during St. Patrick's Day.
    T - shirts, sewing fabrics, decorations even AOh banners have 4 leaf clover instead of the Shamrock which is the symbol of the Holy Trinity as taught by St Patrick.

    That is very interesting! But, not really surprising considering the times. I think some of them are trying to present the "luck" of the Irish, which is signified by four leaves (which may have its root in Protestantism).

    Today, only Catholics holding the sedevacantist position are free from the anguish entailed by this truth.
