Pope Francis cleared the way for his canonisation, expected later this year, after a second miracle was attributed to the late pontiff's intervention.

The Polish-born pope led the Roman Catholic Church from 1978 until his death in 2005.

What about Paul Daniels and Ali Bongo? They were pretty good at magic acts too.

Two possible replies, but I can't decide which one to use, so I'll post them both.

On behalf of Roman Catholics around the world, thank you for posting that picture of the dodgy looking old fella meeting Jimmy Saville.

The other one was pretty much the opposite viewpoint but I'm tired, so I'll leave you guys to imagine what I would have written.

Yes but in their own eyes they are already Saints. Look at the way David Blaine acts. ;)

I thought the catholics had rules on time frames for this sort of thing. Designed of course to allow reason rather than recent popularity to guide the process. Seems they're bypassing those to be popular.
