Nothing happened to St. Christopher. Are you one of those people who erroneously believes he is no longer a saint or no longer considered a saint?

“In no way did the Church “de-canonize” St. Christopher or anyone else, despite the lack of historical evidence surrounding their lives. St. Christopher is still worthy of our devotion and prayers, and each of us should be mindful that he too is called to be a “bearer of Christ.” “

Don’t read anything into my words that is not there. Which is what you are doing. My point is that the church is self-referentially covering it’s butt, and admits that it “doesn’t know much about him” and that because he’s been made a saint, ex cathedra, he MUST have been a saint. Not logical Vlad.
