Irish and Irish Americans react to proposal for giant St. Patrick statue in Mayo – POLL

This idea is wholly inappropriate. If Irish-Americans want a 100 foot statue on a known beauty spot that neither belongs to the Irish catholic church and is also associated with gatherings long before that cult arrived in Ireland then let them find a suitable mountain in the United States and let them face it whichever way they want. This is nothing but a publicity stunt around that sculptor. He demonstrates an apparent lack of knowledge of the inappropriateness of symbols of that cult at this moment in time in Ireland. What goes up can just as easily come down.

i thought i had made a comment,ok leave the place alone and unspoilt,and dont inflict a theocratic symbol by imposition.
