Popes for Game Show Contestants
Given probably that even devout RC'ers only have to know the name Benedict to pray for, along with the local bishop, the auxiliary bishop, the retired bishop, and so on..., the list of popes with their birth names is a bit obscure but comes up every so often. Outside the beaten path. I will post my doggerel version of Adeste Fideles, presently. I only have one verse so it only goes back to the 1920's.
