That article almost read like a satire article. A teenager impressed some old people with a computer and now he’s being made a saint. I too had computer skills in 2006 and also never get laid. What do I get for it?

During his brief life, Acutis created a website cataloging each Eucharistic miracle in the world and listing approved Marian apparitions of the Catholic Church.

He made a list and they call him a computer genius. Not the Onion material.

Did he just … add himself into the saints table?
