Talk:St. Patrick's Bell/@comment-31772644-20171231064925

We all know the Catholics are all about them tasty, tasty divine relics. What if legends of Saint Pat and the snake derived from him owning Aaron's rod at some point? True there are no snakes in Ireland, but if you had something that could get rid of them if there were, you'd be happily throwing around that fact.

Maybe especially true if you were, say, a religious type living around the town of Downpatrick and wanted some solid proof that it was the official resting place of the man. You have the 100% genuine staff of Patrick, you say? Repels snakes and everything? How mighty convenient.
