A Millennial is a person born between 1981-1996.  Or better known as Gen Y.  Carlo was born in 1991.

Which would make him a millennial…….

Or… are you missing the point of my Twenty-First century comment? That what I seek to comment on here is the continuation of this kind of ancient gobbledegook into the present day.

That miracle requirement for sainthood leads to some interesting bullshit.  Gone are the days when the church could spin tales of teleportation or levitation with much believability.  So I guess it’s healing Tshirts.  Not too different from the less glamorous faith healers is it? The magic is always applied to some unseen and vague ailment. Different conmen, same con.

"That path was further paved last year when a second miracle was attributed to Carlo, in which he was credited with the complete healing of Costa Rican student Valeria Valverde from major head trauma sustained in a bicycle accident, after her mother prayed at his tomb."

How's that for cold, hard evidence? :)

She prayed at his tomb. The cause and effect is right there, given a big dollop of credulity.
