Real talk: it is unlikely that any Pope was actually a saint.
@MichaelMcGough3 Fair point. My tweet plays of difference between vernacular definition of saint & specialized Church use of term.

@HeerJeet I think Mother Teresa would qualify in the sense you mean (though Hitchens would disagree). St.Paul, no. -
@MichaelMcGough3 Hitchens was more effective in critiquing MT's ideology & politics than her personal behavior, so, yes, MT might work.

@HeerJeet Not that specialized. Lots of vernacular Catholics understand that “saint” =/= “without sin”. Also that many Popes were assholes.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
