Monday is the Feast of Pope St Leo the Great, here confronting Attila the Hun at Mantua. Only two other Popes have been called great, Pope St Gregory the Great, who has some claim to be the greatest Pope apart from St Peter and Pope St Nicholas the Great who is forgotten by everyone.
The last forty years have not only done more damage to Latin usage in and beyond the Church than even Attila the Hun managed to do. He also destroyed far fewer Churches, as half the Catholics who ever lived are still alive today.
