Quis separabit?

Quis separabit?

"Quis separabit?" (Latin: Who will separate [us] ?) is a motto of the Order of St. Patrick, The Royal Ulster Rifles and the Irish Guards. [ [http://www.cam.ac.uk/societies/cuhags/orderofc/spatrick.htm cam.ac.uk] ] [ [http://www.regiments.org/regiments/uk/inf/083RIrRf.htm regiments.org] ] [ [http://www.army.mod.uk/irishguards/regiment_today/index.htm Irish Guards website] ] It also appears on the Coat of arms of Northern Ireland.

It is also the motto of the Ulster Defence Association, a proscribed loyalist paramilitary group in Northern Ireland. [ [http://www.guardian.co.uk/Northern_Ireland/Story/0,,800758,00.html "Guardian"] ] The source is the Vulgate translation of Romans, 8:35: "Quis nos separabit a caritate Christi"...", translated as "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?".

It shows up on the Seal of South Carolina, for other reasons.
