TT RACES Rich in history, the Isle of Man can look back on a tapestry of events from the introduction of farming in the fourth millennium BC, the Manx Iron Age from 500 BC to 500 AD, the Celtic traditions, through to Christianity and Viking rule of the ninth century. During the mid-thirteenth to early fifteenth centuries, Sovereignty passed frequently between Scotland and England, with occasional incursions from Ireland. By the eighteenth century, it had become a major centre for the smuggling trade and to put a stop to this, the British Government enacted a new law in 1765, namely the Re-Vestment Act and purchased the entire Island for just £70,000. Whilst these measures were designed to save the UK Treasury approximately £100,000 per annum, they deprived the Islanders of their main source of income. Throughout the centuries the Isle of Man has developed a way of life and a culture all of its own. Many world events such as the Roman and Norman invasions of Britain passed it by and the Island quietly took visits from Irish and Scottish freebooters in its stride. The arrival of the Vikings however, did leave a lasting mark on this tiny Celtic nation.

106. Celtic Spirituality The christianity practiced by the celtic churches came to these islands before the emissaries of the Church of Rome landed in Kent with St Augustine. http://homepages.tcp.co.uk/~wiseowl/chapel/celtic.html

The Christianity practiced by the Celtic churches came to these islands before the emissaries of the Church of Rome landed in Kent with St Augustine. St Columba is said to have died on the day that Augustine landed. The original missionaries spoke Greek and their liturgies and the way in which they dated Easter point to their having originated in the eastern half of the empire. There is evidence that the Druids welcomed the new religion and that the two belief-systems were gradually assimilated. Celtic priests shaved the front of their heads in the Druid manner and men who had been druids continued as christian priests. Columba himself, Colmcille of our hearts, was the son of a druid and educated in a druid college. It was a Celtic monk, Pelagius, who promulgated the famous Pelagian 'Heresy' which denied both the concept of Original Sin and Man's position at the centre of the created universe. When the two forms of Christianity met up, the Celtic from the North and west and the Roman from the East, they at first co-existed peacefully, even sharing the same churches, but eventually, political events forced the churchmen to unite and at the historic Synod of Whitby, the Roman version gained the ascendancy. In Ireland and Scotland, however, and even in many parts of England, the old celtic ways survived, although at various periods of history they were frowned upon, and so we have a legacy of celtic prayers preserved in the Gaelic language.

108. Christianity: Celtic Tradition A brief presentation of the celtic Christian tradition. http://www.christianitysite.com/Celticchristianity.htm

Celtic Christianity Across northern Europe, particularly Ireland and Scotland, a religion immersed in the natural world arose at some unknown point in history when the glaciers had left and people found their way to the northern reaches of sea and land. Central to Celtic thought was the close relationship between the "other world", the divine; and the land and the waters where springs, rivers and hills were inhabited by spirits. Early in the Christian time, believers apparently came with the Roman armies, likely before 200 a.d., and settled in the far reaches of the frontier. It is known that when Pope Gregory sent Roman monks to convert the English, missionaries from Ireland were already present. An entire Celtic Christian community had been developing without any formal guidance from headquarters. Monasteries were built on many of the islands surrounding the coasts of Scotland, Wales and Ireland. The Celtic missionaries saw their tradition as based and rooted in the Apostle John. The monks shaved their heads differently than monks related to the Roman church and the date for Easter differed from the Roman based schedule. . Conflict was inevitable. As the Roman Empire collapsed, the Roman Church was filling the void. It was in 597 a.d. that Gregory sent St Augustine to Christianize Britain. He found that in Northumbria Scottish and Irish missionaries from St Aidan and Iona were already present. A great problem was that the Celtic and Roman Church had a disagreement over the date of Easter. So it was that in 664 a.d. a conference was called at the Monastery of St Hilda at

Peek Through the Window of the Episcopal Church Early Celtic Christian Spirituality by Maria Hoshaw Early Celtic Spirituality originated from St. Patrick. As the story goes, he was born in England and was taken a slave as a teenager by slave traders from Ireland. He was forced into slavery in Ireland, where he stayed for 7 years before he escaped. While there, he learned the culture and language of the natives. After he went back to England and to other countries within the larger continent, he became a devote Christian. Later, he was ordained a Bishop with the vision to go to the Pagans of Ireland and convert them to Christianity. The way of St. Patrick, and those who followed him, brought with them what became early Celtic spirituality. The early Christians of England, Wales, and Ireland discovered a people who worshipped nature, trees, and water. These people with their Druid priests and beliefs were gentle and lived in small communities. The early Christians came and listened to the natives, learning their stories and beliefs. Then the Christians borrowed from the native symbols and turned them into Christian symbols. The natives worshipped water and water spirits. The Christians helped them by sharing the power of Baptism and redemption (healing) love of Jesus Christ. The Christians then would erect tall Christian cross near the rivers and other places sacred to the pagan culture. The Pagan Celts were open to Christianity as the Christianity presented revealed a love of nature, a respect for life, was open to the imagination, engaged in storytelling, had miracles, was based in small communities, and were very welcoming. Very quickly, then, Pagan Celtic tribes adopted the beliefs and ways of the Celtic Christians.This early Celtic Christianity succeeded in reaching and converting the Pagans to follow Christ.

I have serious concerns about this mix. Christianity and Buddhism are two very different religions, and by trying to mix them they are true to neither. As a Christian it bothers me that they try to mix the truth of the Word of God with the false teachings of Buddhism. I think rather it is degrading and insinuates that what we believe is not important. The Bible presents absolute truth, and we ought to stand for that truth in the music we listen to. Musically, the blend of styles of Celtic Christian and Zen Buddhism seems to wander aimlessly. It relies heavily on the bamboo flute which I don't care for personally. The CD loses most of it's Celtic feel when it abandons the traditional Celtic instruments for the bamboo flute. The CD still has a bit of a Celtic flavor, but as they tried to blend Christianity with Buddhism and Celtic music with the Zen Buddhist style, the Christian and Celtic influences were all but lost completely.

After the Synod of Whitby ... 21st Century Celtic Christian History In the Beginning Christianity first came to the Celts in the 2nd century (or possibly earlier,) during the Roman occupation, probably through individual converts in the army. However, it was not until late in the 4th century that the distinct characteristics of Celtic Christianity began to emerge. After the Romans withdrew from Britain, there was nearly 200 years of significant separation between the Celtic and Roman mission and churches, when Celtic spirituality was free to develop away from Roman domination. The most significant development of Celtic Christianity, was its understanding of the Christian gospel independent from what was taught by Rome. Roman Christianity tended to be authoritarian, hierarchical, male dominated, rational, strongly legalistic, with a powerful need for control and uniformity and an understanding of governance which was inherited from a dying Roman Empire. In contrast, the Celtic church celebrated grace and nature as good gifts from God and recognised the sacredness of all creation. It had a love of mysticism and poetry, a deep respect for the feminine, included women in its leadership and allowed clerical marriages. The Celtic understanding of church leadership was rooted in its rural and agricultural communal culture, and the great Celtic monasteries emerged from this tribal system. Although the abbots were generally not ordained, the leadership and power in the Celtic church, lay with the abbots of the monasteries.

It had a love of mysticism and poetry, a deep respect for the feminine, included women in its leadership and allowed clerical marriages.

Although the abbots were generally not ordained, the leadership and power in the Celtic church, lay with the abbots of the monasteries. The roots of Celtic Christianity reach deep into the mysticism of St John the evangelist in the New Testament, and the wisdom tradition of the Old Testament. According to Celtic tradition, when St John leaned against Jesus at the Last Supper, he heard the heartbeat of God. Therefore, St John became a symbol of listening for the life of God in ourselves, and in all creation.
