Chevalier Charles Coulombe on King Alfred the Great's Cause for Canonisation

I had not realised that King Alfred had a developed cultus, or that his Cause had been introduced at Rome before the Protestant Deformation. Well, you learn something new every day, and I look forward to doing so!

  1. I wonder how many other causes have been opened for centuries that Rome has not yet acted upon. I had not known about King Alfred's cause, and you have again provided some very interesting information.

Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
