The pope will sanctify more than 12,000 Christian martyrs
The list of God's "unknown soldiers" to be acknowledged next week at the Coliseum in Rome includes four cardinals, 122 bishops, more than 5,000 priests, and more than 2,000 lay people. (We'll have more on this as the ceremony approaches.)
Kinda like Billy Graham speaking at a Marilyn Manson concert
In even stranger music news,
Lou Reed and
Alanis Morissette will headline a May Day event with Pope John Paul II. Many of our readers may not know of Reed and Morissette. Of course, there's more to them than
anti-Catholicism, but suffice to say that it's an odd matching. Apparently the pope is leaving after he says the Mass.
