And that’s basically it!
The kid spread religion online. God killed him for it. Pope makes him a saint. God facepalms and says "How many more kids do I have to kill to show you that you should stop wasting time in church and just be a good person".
if a bishop watched me code I could be the first programmer saint. There are times only god knows how my software works. Or not, in case cursing disqualifies candidates.
TempleOS guy would be so angry
If you pray to him and miracles happen, we can have Saint Terry the Terrible
My code comes from the bad place
Let's not be so pessimistic. I'm sure it's from the middle place at least.
Candidates for sainthood require two distinct miracles attributed to them: Acutis was first beatified in 2020 after a Brazilian boy with a pancreatic defect was cured, following his mother's prayers to Acutis to help her son. The second miracle involves the reported healing of a Costa Rican girl who suffered a serious head injury after falling off her bike in Florence: her mother prayed for the girl's recovery at Acutis' tomb in Assisi, and her daughter made a full recovery.
Quite, uh, remarkable "miracles".
I feel like maybe Acurtis 360 no scoped that girl off the bike, then came back in as a healer and brought her back to full health.
...kind of cheating.
According to Carlin's theory, 4 prayers to Joe Pesci (PBUH) should suffice for sainthood.
Joe Pesci: patron saint of smashing things with a baseball bat.
wait isn't it the mom who should be a saint then?
Nah, basically, the logic is that since he allegedly healed her, that he is apparently alive in heaven and no longer in purgatory. Thus becoming a saint as his salvation has been "proven"
A blind study should be performed for a proper empirical proof. Sample size of two is not going to cut it either. Pump those numbers up to reach statistical significance.
Feels like we could get two miracles attributed to that famous painter, just for shit & giggles, having a Saint Hitler would be funny (if not for the distress caused to the survivors). Other satins have a much lower kill ratios (up to a few thousand only??).
(And ofc /s, choosing saints is a completely political process addressing Church's needs.)
I knew religion was a joke. Anyone who still refuses to admit it is a total moron
Except there are still 1.4 BILLION catholics in the world, and that's just catholicism.
We may not like it, we may not get anything from it, but we should very much be concerned with what happens in the world of organized religion and what it's representing because 3/4 of the world still believe in some kind of religion.
Huh, seems it's like ~~an attraction~~ a pilgrimage site:
They've added 15 saints in 2024? Usually less per year tho.

They made merch, omfg 🤣 I despise this shit.
Also:
Acutis also created a popular website documenting miracles as a means of spreading the Catholic message, which is what led to the nickname of "God's influencer."
I can't.🥲
cant remember where i saw it but young people are joining less and less i guess its their way of trying to connect to the "youths". Its such a spectacle.
By using the exact same model as for non-youths.
Yeah.
good god that makes me gag
Seems like rich territory for jokes about saint Luigi
Gamers have risen up

I don't know anything about the dead guy. Is this deserved recognition or a shameless attention grab by a no longer relevant institution?

Our destruction was the will of their god, and he was its instrument.
How is this strange? It was going to happen eventually and it will continue to happen
