THE 16 (XVI) MOST PROMINENT PAPAL NAMES

This is a veritable history of the Petrine dynasty using 16 of the most prominent names of the pontiffs from the very beginning of the Papacy.

The 3 Popes Named Julius
The 23 Popes named John	The 16 Popes named Gregory	The 16 Popes named Benedict
The 14 Popes named Clement	The 13 Popes named "Innocent"	The 13 Popes named Leo
The 12 Popes named Pius	The 9 Popes named Boniface	The 9 Popes named Stephen
The 8 Popes named Alexander	The 8 Popes named Urban	The 6 Popes named Paul

If I were Apollyon and I had to choose a name for the last Pope, I would choose the name that has deceived the most souls and and sent them to Hades.....My first choice would be GREGORY, with LEO as a runner up!
