Did you know in old Ireland, the Irish had a practice, when baptizing infants, to leave the right arm out of the water, to keep the arm pagan and thus good for fighting?

Did you know that during the Viking Era, a favoured practise of Glasweigen factions was to impale the bodys of their enemies' babies on long blades?

The Celtic peoples were very good at retaining their older religious practices in spite of Christianity's invasion.
