So this is trippy. So according to Bishop Speyer, Saint Christopher was a reformed werewolf. Apparently this came about as someone mis-translated Latin: that Cananeus meant canineus or "canine". Apparently it made it's way into the new testament as the a sect of cannanites (if I'm understanding this correctly) who were "people" who barked and ate human flesh. wiki

I just love the Egyptian overtones of all this... and I want a print of that for the living room wall.

Apparently Saint Christopher, if your mother so named you Chris because of this- lost his sainthood in 1969 because the church doesn't believe he really ever existed. Or are they just cleaning up some dirty portions of their religion?

They might no longer believe in him, but they still worship the Flying Saint- Saint Joseph of Cupertino

I don't think replacing belief in a monster with worship of a superhero is a sign of maturity. It's more of a lateral move than an advance.
