The Red-Hand Of
Ulster
The red hand of Ulster comes
from a legend from one of Ireland's many legendary invasions.
The leader of a war party promised a prize to the first man to touch
land with his right hand; so the winner, a left-handed man, cut off
his right hand and threw it onto the shore. As with most legends
there are many versions of the story this is just one.
Irish Republicans have a hatred of all things British, yet they
like to celebrate St Patrick's day the most British of All Saints.
For those of you who think St. Patrick belongs only to the Irish
Catholics, you should know that Patrick himself was neither Irish nor
Roman Catholic. He was a Briton by birth. And he was part of Celtic
Christianity which in his day was independent from Rome.
Message from the editor. It is not the aim or
intention of Scottish Loyalists to incite hatred of Roman Catholics but
rather, by use of facts and Biblical truth to highlight the errors of
the Roman Church, and also to promote the Protestant cause and Loyalist
traditions. It is the intolerance of others who oppose our right to
celebrate our culture who are the true bigots.
