The Catholic Church invents magical miracles to justify their large collection of dead saints.
What is a saint? I looked it up. "a person acknowledged as holy or virtuous and typically regarded as being in heaven after death."
A saint is a decomposing corpse that magically flew to a magical paradise after he or she dropped dead. As if a corpse could fly.
Christian and Catholic fucktards say the "soul" flies to heaven, not the corpse.
What is a soul? I looked it up. "the spiritual or immaterial part of a human being or animal, regarded as immortal."
Anyone who isn't fucking insane knows this is bullshit.
The Pope, aka child abuser, wants to change the subject so he invents saints and magical miracles. There never has been and never will be a magical miracle. Magic is not real. The fucktard Pope is selling bullshit.
The Wall Street Journal, also known as the Catholic Journal because it always has lots of Pope bullshit in it, has an article about another magical saint and more magical miracles.
Religious assholes won't admit it because it makes them look childish, but they all believe in magic. They call their magical master "God" but really the thing is a Magic Man. I never met a theist who wasn't a fucking retard.
Wall Street Journal - Pope Moves First African-American Priest Closer to Sainthood
The Rev. Augustus Tolton would be the first African-American saint.

ROME—Pope Francis decreed the “heroic virtues” of the first African-American Catholic priest, thereby bringing a man who was born into slavery in the 19th century a step closer to becoming the first African-American saint.
The Rev. Augustus Tolton, who was born a slave in Missouri in 1854, will henceforth be known as “venerable” due to the papal decree, which the Vatican announced on Wednesday.
Father Tolton—who studied at a seminary in Rome after being rejected by every American one to which he applied—was ordained in the Italian capital in 1886 and served in Chicago, where he oversaw the construction of a church for black parishioners on the city’s South Side and where he died of heat stroke in 1897.
Before Father Tolton can be declared “blessed,” the next step in the path to sainthood, the Vatican has to rule that a miracle—a medically inexplicable recovery from an illness—occurred after devotees prayed for his intercession with God. A second such miracle, occurring after beatification, would be required before he could be canonized as a saint.
According to Britain’s Catholic Herald, two possible miracles attributable to Father Tolton’s intercession have already been referred to the Vatican.
There are about 3 million black Catholics in the U.S., according to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, out of an estimated 71 million Catholics in the country.
There are eight active African-American Catholic bishops, six of them heads of dioceses, and 250 African-American priests. In April, Pope Francis named Archbishop Wilton Gregory as the new archbishop of Washington, D.C., making him the first African-American to hold the post.
All previous archbishops of Washington have been made cardinals, so Archbishop Gregory is likely to become the first black American to join the College of Cardinals.

"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne

The moron Pope has been covering up child abuse and he knows it. To solve the problem he has been changing the subject every chance he gets. For example this bullshit about magical miracles. Drop dead Pope, you stupid fucking asshole.
