It's honestly a little weird that more saints aren't literal children, given the predilections of Catholics and the fact that the world doesn't give a crap about said predilections.

The painting of Carlo is hilarious. I imagine it's solemn ceremony and the painting is Carlo wearing normal clothes.

It's going to be real disorienting looking at the portraits of Saints. It's going to start from ancient clothing to formal more contemporary clothing to a saint were a bright red jacket with a backpack on.

And lo did St Carlo the Broccoli Headed droppeth his divine merch upon thy gyats, absent of any fanum tax, and the fam was filled with much rizz. Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula skibidi. Amen.

Look, if my code compiles on the first try, I'd call that a miracle as well, but I ain't no saint.

It's a lot of work making stuff up just to have your spiritual alcohol.

How the fuck can anyone take this shit seriously? Religion is a scourge on all of us, turning the feeble-minded into an instrument for the benefit of evil sociopaths.

Wait so according to the article, someone prayed to him while in hospital and got healed? Is that all it takes to become a Saint? I wonder: if I ever get into a hospital I should pray to say Genghis Khan just to troll the Church.

Grown motherfuckers believe this bullshit.

The patron saint of the internet. If you pray to him and touch one of his shirts you’ll be healed.

For anyone else who wondered how a teenage website dev could also be a millennial, in 2024, (and didn’t want to read the article) he died of lukemia in 2006 at age 15.

Jesus fucking Christ. Humans are weird.

He turns water into Mtn dew

He's unlocked recursive miracle attribution. That he was attributed 2 miracles is itself a third miracle. Some guy getting 3 miracles? That's another miracle..

If there's a developer deserving of sainthood it's Terry Davies of TempleOS fame. But I'm not sure if he counts as Catholic.

Huh, figured the pope would be too busy bashing trans people and protecting paedophiles.

I don't care how unpopular this opinion is, but all religions are fucking stupid, and this is just another bullet point in the list of stupid shit zealots do to maintain control over the masses. Oh, you're losing your young people to atheism and science? Better give them a role model and make a fucking saint out of a junior web dev with a geocities site. Holy shit.

Actual holy shit.

Went with the Yahoo! link as they are guaranteed to not have some sort of paywall that pops out of nowhere. Also because the Insider used a video, so this is an actual word transcription
