2017 Halloween- Cadaver Synod

This Halloween marks 500th year since the Reformation, and I just recently learned that long ago a pope dug up the remains of a previous pope and put him on trial...

How awesome is that!!!

"Probably around January 897, Stephen VI ordered that the corpse of his predecessor Formosus be removed from its tomb and brought to the papal court for judgment. With the corpse propped up on a throne, a deacon was appointed to answer for the deceased pontiff."
