Was Crom Cruach a real Irish god? Or just Christian propaganda? Let’s unravel St. Patrick’s legend!

In this episode of Creation’s Paths, hosts Charlie and Brian explore the legend of St. Patrick and Crom Cruach, a tale of Christianity’s clash with Druidry in ancient Ireland. They dive into the historical accuracy of the myth, questioning whether Crom Cruach was an actual deity or a later fabrication. The episode examines St. Patrick’s role in driving out the Druids, the propaganda behind Christian miracle stories, and how imperial narratives shaped religious history. They also discuss comparisons to Conan the Barbarian, the satanic panic of the 80s, and the power of myth in shaping belief systems. With humor and insight, they debunk misconceptions about Celtic paganism, analyze Christian imperialism, and challenge listeners to recognize the hidden “magic” of storytelling as a tool of control.
