Very interesting that Colombán went to Carnac ! People often forget that these Irish monks were not Roman Catholic, but in fact Celtic Christian monks. They were the antithesis of the Roman Catholic hierarchical structure. The Celtic Christian monks operated a decentralised monastic structure based upon the Coptic monasticism of St. Anthony and the Apostle Mark.

Thanks Fionán, glad you are enjoying the series. Columban embraced travel/permanent exile as a an almost sacred obligation, a form of martyrdom. He was an amazing man at a difficult moment in our history. We owe you Irish a great debt! blessings to you and peace, Henry

Glad you enjoyed it! I just saw your other comment in the side bar this morning but cannot actually find it to reply to. So I will do it here. Wow, that lecture is in depth man! I think the post-exilic prophetic literature is a gold mine for us as we negotiate the minefield of modern political life.

You bring history alive Henry, Well done. Want to go to Brittany now to see all those sites

Yes, we'd like to go back too. I never got to visit St Gildas either, or to really sniff around the San Columban village for a cashel wall etc. We were so tired that day.... and had no coffee, my mind just wasn't on the ball. In fact, the rather abrupt cut on the beach at the end was because I said ' need to find somewhere with some coffee'!!! lessons learned!

Loud music makes it difficult to hear the commentary. That’s sad as it is so good
