Do you know what a mediocrity is? In terms of Popes, Pius XII was a mediocrity. That is not so bad as you might think.

Yeah, I may be looking at his posts right now.

“In terms of Popes, Pius XII was a mediocrity.”

According to what standard? He published great and important encyclicals, saved up to 860,000 Jews, was beloved by the world’s Christians, and respected by non-Catholics for his service to God and man. How does that make him mediocre as a pope?

“That is not so bad as you might think.”

You’re not making any sense.
