Blessed John XXIII was a former pirate? Who are you kidding?
When you find a church on this planet without sinners, then ping us. That would be newsworthy.
Not just a pirate:
John XXIII was described in Vicars of Christ: "He was noted as a former pirate, pope-poisoner, mass-murderer, mass-fornicator…, adulterer on a scale unknown outside fables, simoniac par excellence, blackmailer, pimp, master of dirty tricks."
He has been dead for 45 years, why are we just now hearing about this? Which pope is he accused of poisoning? Who are the women he pimped and had sex with?
