for  Christianity;  to  this  same  Christianity,  St.  Columbanus  would  give  the  Celtic
               treasure».

                      «St.  Columbanus  was  a  Christian  of  Ireland,  country  that  had  embraced
               Christianity  very  soon,  without  the  impositions  more  or  less  brutal  of  the  Roman
               Emperors, neither the one of the barbarians who called themselves Romans, as had
               occurred in all the Celt countries of druidical past. It can be said, without incurring in
               error,  that  the  Christians  of  Rome  and  the  ones  of  Clovis,  made  unpleasant  the
               Christianity in the Gauls».

                      «Ireland  didn’t  meet  Rome  neither  the  barbarians,  and  that  explains  that
               acceptation of Christianity without abruptness».


                      «Neither  are  known  many  things  about  the  Druidism;  but  their  facility  to
               accept in certain form Christianity, seems to situate them spiritually very near to it.
               Nothing  about  the  new  revelation  was  found  strange  for  them:  neither  the  divine
               unity,  nor  an  Uncreated  God  who  includes  the  Universe  in  all  its  forms,  nor  the
               Divinity in Three Persons, nor a God born from a Virgin, nor the incarnated God, nor
               the Divine Crucified Man, nor the resurrection, nor the immortality of the Soul that
               they already preached…»

                      «St. Benedict, in his last hours, screamed: «I see the Trinity and Peter and Paul

               and the Druids and Saints…»

                      «The  entire  Celt  people,  after  the  Druids,  were  precipitated  to  Christianity».
               «Ireland, that had escaped from the Roman conquest and later to the Arab conquests,
               remained Christian, but if can be said thus, ‘Druidically’».

                      Undoubtedly  Professor  Ramirez  knew  to  support  his  arguments  with  most  adequate
               texts, I thought with admiration.

                      –Around  these  facts  –continued  the  Professor–  is  situated  (century  VII)  the
               «disappearance» of the Druids in their traditional aspect, but sporadic re-apparitions occurred
               through the course of History, especially during the Crusades (centuries XV and XVI), in the
               affirmation of the currents called of the Enlightenment, Freethought, and Masonry, (XVII and
               XVIII centuries).

                      As can be seen, they always appear connected to the crisis or to the revolution, but look
               out Arturo, just in relation to the Celt Race. It seems that the presence of the Druid has only
               one objective: be guide of Celts, as Taliesin sang. Today Celt doesn’t mean much thing, but
