well, when the Mafia is involved, infiltrating the Church along w/ other nefarious Mafia-like groups... What can we expect?
Notice how JP I was not made a saint, yet others in th modern age were! He likely knew that someone was out to get him.. and yet he was going to go through w/ his removals anyway
he is a martyr in my opinion.
Really? From what I understand he's well on his way to being Canonized, but for the miracle...
"He was declared a Servant of God by his successor, John Paul II, on 23 November 2003, the first step on the road to sainthood. Pope Francis confirmed his heroic virtue on 8 November 2017 and named him as Venerable."
"For Luciani to be beatified, the investigators have to certify at least one miracle attributed to his intercession. For canonisation there must be a second miracle, though the reigning pope may waive these requirements altogether, as is often done in the case of beatified popes.
It was reported in 2016 that a potential miracle attributed to the late pontiff's intercession occurred in to a nun in Buenos Aires in Argentina."
"The journalist and vice-postulator for Luciani's cause of canonization, Stefania Falasca, published a new book in 2017 titled Pope Luciani, Chronicle of a Death, in which she revealed that John Paul I had complained of chest pains hours before his death, and the evening before, but paid no attention to it and ordered that his doctor not be called to examine the pope.[47] Falasca confirmed that, after interviewing the nuns who found him and docuмents from the Vatican Secret Archives, Luciani died of a heart attack in late evening hours of 28 September."
