But would they have made him the patron Saint of Pakistan?

I figured only the English would fall for the old "dragon slaying" story

Well the story spread and he was the saint of many different countries at many times.

Same way Jesus is the saviour of many western world countries but came from the middle east where they worship Allah (for example).

I thought he was supposed to be a Roman soldier serving in Asia Minor
anyway he wasn't English and its a fair bet he never saw a dragon never mind slew one

Ok well he was IN that area, he didn't slay any english dragons and it wasnt in the middle ages as is usually portrayed.

true enough

Yeah same with King Arthur.

Well I feel a bit jibbed...

sorry to shatter your illusions

Here I was thinking that St George was some English dude slaying dragons...now I'll have to change religions...

...oh wait a second, I'm almost certain I've already done that

I'm sure we can shatter your illusions about that 1 too

Give me a while to recover from that one first will ya ??

Well if you insist

Oh thank you, great and benevolent sir

Its only because its you, usually I prefer to hit a person when they're down

It’s eternally generous and good of you, to be so kind to my poor fragile soul

Well just don't forget it

You know I won't.

You're on my list of people to save when I take over the world

Which is pretty sure to make you some sort of important figure in the Church of the Dancing Kitty, perhaps St Tanzen the Saviour

oooh! oooh!!!
save me too!?

I don't know if I should be a saviour, since I've been the ruin of many a good person
