03/17/2004: "On the topic of St. Patricks day"

For those of you who make it to the blog on St. Patricks day, you'll notice that the color of the blog has changed from violet to white (although it has some yellow in it). That's because Saints days are celebrated with white unless they were a martyr when it is celebrated with red.

So here's my question: Should I abandon the 'liturgically correct' color of white and change it to be 'ordinary green' because St. Patricks day is celebrated with green in the secular world, or leave it the 'liturgically correct' white? All opinions are welcome. In other words, let me know you read my blog by commenting on this one!

Ken-
I think it should be green, St. Patrick would have wanted it this way, or else he would have brought christianity to some culture whose national heritage was white lol LOL
cheers,
