Saint Linus (The 2nd Pope, 64-76 AD, rating 7/10)
Saint Linus
While very little is known about Saint Linus, he appears to have been beloved by the Christian community. My modern bias makes me uncomfortable with him taking Saint Paul out of his own context and enforcing the edict that women cover their heads in church (1 Corinthians 11). Linus also furthered the institutional hierarchy of the church by appointing several bishops during his time. Linus was committed to God as martyr in 76 AD.
Integrity 4/5
Grace 3/5
Total Score: 7/10
