If I was Pope, I would issue a decree making the anniversary of the battle at Lapanto a Holy Day of Obligation.
I would also require Catholics to eat bacon on that day.
@Joeinblack I love it. Unless it falls on a Friday I always make sure to enjoy pork and a beer that day, same with anniversary of the charge of Winged Hussars at Vienna
@catholic_love I believe that’s how they fight it, however the Pneumonic plague is much harder to fight. The bacteria that causes the plague, can cause three different types, Bubonic, Pheumonic, and septicemic.
