'Miracle Cure' attributed to Cardinal Newman

American deacon, Jack Sullivan, claims to have been cured of debilitating back pain through the intervention of the late Cardinal John Henry Newman.


Newman was a 19th Century English Bishop, who converted to Catholicism from the Church of England at the age of 44.


He is respected as a theologian and for his work with the poor.


The miracle has been accepted by the Vatican and puts Newman on the path to Sainthood.

    Did you know that the Catholic Church made Thomas More the patron saint of politicians, despite him burning people to death for reading the Bible in English? Does a man who roasts the living flesh of innocent human beings deserve to be hailed as a Saint? So I'm not putting too much stock in the Vaticans ability to recognise someone worth praying to.
