Google Doodle Gets Religion?

St. Patrick's Day 2018
Today Google Doodle has surprised me with, to my memory, its first explicit reference to Christianity, in the title of today's artwork. Good.

But wait. No Christmas, no Lent, no Good Friday, no Easter, where do you get a Saint and a Bishop Missionary Saint at that with your pretend positivist post-Christianity Neo-Gnosticism?

Surprise, surprise there is no religious symbol identifiable in the Doodle. Why not do something really original and show the saintly bishop expelling the snake-gods from the false religion infested Island with the light of Christ, according to the historical record!

Happy Saint Patrick's Day indeed, Year of the Lord Jesus Christ MMXVIII! Google needs to figure out what it means by 2018!

March 19th, the Feast of Saint Joseph, Patron Saint of Italy, will surely be ignored on Monday,  and not because the Irish are more important to Google or to the world than the Italians, nor because Patrick is more important than Joseph. So, either Google is dumb or actively corrupting the culture, or a combination of both. You decide.

The logic here is going tests both the secular and the religious mettle of Google. Because true secularity cannot be anti-Christian. Anti-Christian bias is not secularity but secularism, an ideology (i.e. belief system). There is a difference. Secularity is actually a Christian principle, it comes from belief in Creation and it's Creator, and therefore is based on respect because it admits the ten commandments.

The world is good only because the good God made it so. And Saint Patrick in expelling superstition and false worship is a testimony to that fact. The creature shall not be worshiped, only the Creator. Jesus Christ is He!

Google Doodle Ignores Easter!
