"What do you mean by father giving birth?"

This is a legend about women, which is not widely known, but it is regarded as the most puzzling and surprising discovery in the history of western religion. Fascinating, its story happened around the ninth century, but it was first mentioned after the thirteenth century. Although the Vatican denied her existence, in modern times, biographical novels about female popes have flourished. Does this woman exist? Are the legendary details conclusive? Based on various historical materials, this paper gives a textual research on legends, hoping to get a correct definition. I would rather give up everything than live in ignorance! And you, have the courage to accept the fact? Does the female pope really exist? As we all know, the role of women in the Catholic clergy system is limited to nuns, and other clergy, from priests to popes, are reserved for men. But if someone tells you that the Catholic Church in the Middle Ages had a female pope who came to Europe for two years, it is said that she was wise, independent and had a legendary experience. Although her name was kept secret by the church for hundreds of years ... the passage of time did not make her legend disappear. Can you believe it? The priestess card in tarot. Some people call it a priestess, which seems to imply something to us. According to official data, more than 23 popes have chosen their own Pope John in history, which really puzzles many people, because there are two Pope Pope John XXIII alone, one of whom arrogantly calls himself Pope and the other Pope. Pope John XXI should even be John XXI because the title order is wrong. But chaos does not mean that there is no record. In history, no John was elected Pope in 855. Similar John is only in 872, 1024, 1276, 13 16, or even around100. The closest thing to the legend is Pope John VIII (872-82), but his life is introduced in detail, not after St. Leo IV, or even after Pope Benedict XVI, and his reign lasted for ten years, which is said to be no more than two years. Although this can rule out the possibility that "Joan of Arc" is hidden among Pope John, it does not mean that this history has not been tampered with by the authorities. After all, the world. In fact, every priest in the Roman church from ancient times to the present is also male. The reason given by the Catholic Church is that Jesus and each of his disciples are male. Moreover, the church believes that it is their bounden duty to imitate Jesus, so it is wrong to appoint women. Some people once thought that in religious history books, the church kept silent about the female pope, and in order to erase it from history, they forced Leo IV, who lived in 853 AD, to "die late" for two years to eliminate the two-year history of the female pope. It is this secretive behavior that makes people argue about the existence of this female pope for more than 1000 years, until today! However, whether the female pope exists or not, this legend has been lingering. So far, there are two different versions of the legend about Pope Joan. Although the two versions have different ages and characters, it is not difficult to see the similarities between them. Version 1: Jean de Murray, friar of St. Dominic, chronicler. In his book Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit, he quoted the story of Etienne de Bourbon (A.D. 126 1), who was also a member of the Order of Minnich in Santo, and recorded the legend about the female pope for the first time. The so-called female pope in this article lived around 1 100, and her name is not recorded. The story tells the story of a very talented woman disguised as a man, first a notary in the Vatican, then a cardinal, and finally a pope. But one day, when she was riding a horse, when all beings gave birth to a boy; Then she was tied in a ponytail and dragged around the city until she was stoned to death by the people. She was buried where she died, and the inscription on the tombstone read: "Petre Pater Patrum Papis SAE Prodi to Partum. In her time, Lent Day was called "Lent Day of the Popes". "This is a short and pithy story, too rough and unconvincing. Its appearance aims at historical records, thus providing a basis for future successors. Version 2: This is the most widely circulated and reasonably designed version. This version was first seen in the third revised edition of Martin Ponlonia Chronicle (d. 1278), and the author himself deliberately inserted this story in this revised edition. Since then, many writers have developed and enriched it. The most famous and complete book is Pope Joan written by Don Cross. Combining the two, the story can be summarized as follows: Joan was born in southern Germany, so she wore boys' clothes since she was a child in order to study in a monastery. Because of her cleverness, she became an influential person in the local area. Later, in order to continue her studies, she came to Greece, but soon she moved to Rome. At that time, the Pope was Serval II. After she arrived in Rome, she began to contact the Pope and began to serve the Vatican. Her excellent work ability makes her very popular with local civilians. After the death of Pope Saint Leo IV, she was elected as the new Pope by Roman clergy and civilians. Joan chose John as her Christian name. She served for two years, seven months and four days after Saint Leo IV. It was not until a parade that she gave birth to a boy when the parade marched somewhere between St. Clementine Street and the Colosseum in Rome. Similarly, she was paraded in the street with a ponytail, but she didn't die. She was imprisoned and repented for life. Joan's boy used to be the bishop of ostia, where she died. This statement was once very popular. During the period from14th century to15th century, Pope Joan publicly existed as a historical figure. Murals in various churches depict her, and even a bust of her was erected outside the cathedral in Siena, Italy. It was not until later, at the request of Pope Clementine VIII, that this statue was replaced by the Sahrawi Pope. What's more, when Hus, regarded as a heresy by the Vatican, defended his wrong doctrine in Constantine Grand Council, he also mentioned the issue of the female pope. Strangely, at that time, no one questioned the fact that she existed, which was even the only one in Huss' view that was not questioned. This makes those who support the view of the female pope more affirm the existence of Joan of Arc. Some people suggest that in the 600 years after her, the new pope must take a gender test before taking office to make sure that he is not a woman. Moreover, in all subsequent parades, successive popes deliberately bypassed the path of the emperor's safe birth, seeking for the distance from the near, and all this seemed to echo the legend of Joanne, the female pope, intentionally or unintentionally. So according to these factors, as a textual research, we can summarize the discussion as: 1. Time, according to legend, she served after St. Leo IV (847-855) and before Pope Benedict XVI (858), so it can be inquired according to the records of popes in previous dynasties; 2. Of course, Joan chose the pope named "John", so even if the Vatican does not recognize the existence of the female pope, she may be hidden among the 23 Pope John; 3. Is the gender test before the Pope takes office and deliberately bypassing the legendary street in the parade all aimed at the lessons of the female Pope Joan of Arc? Through these three arguments, we can not only see various signs that "Pope Joan" is more likely to exist. The film adapted from American novelist Donna Woolfolk Cross's novel "Pope Joan in Modern Eyes" was recently released in the UK, which also allowed us to publish this secret history of 1 100 years ago in The Sun again. Even the Vatican, which once banned films such as The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons, responded in silence this time, making people suspicious and more convinced that the female Pope Joan of Arc really exists. According to the data, the pope named Joan of Arc was born in Ingham, a small town on the Rhine, with an English father and a German mother. The film began in 8 14 A.D., which was also the medieval Europe where women were discriminated against. However, when she was a teenager, our female pope, with her extraordinary wisdom and courage, resolutely disguised herself as a man, replacing her brother John who died young, and entered a monastery to study theology and medicine. He quickly stood out from many clergy students, so he was chosen to show his talents in Rome and the Vatican, and was reused by Sergius II and Leo IV. Later, in 853, Leo IV died, and Joan of Arc was elected as the new Pope with the title of "John". However, Joan still couldn't get rid of the fetters of love, and continued to have sex with her close lover, Count Jerome, and even became pregnant two years after she ascended the throne. Joan and Jerome discussed secretly leaving the Vatican before giving birth and coming back after giving birth. However, on Easter in 855 AD, Joan learned that Jerome was killed while patrolling the streets of Rome. When the fast horse rushed to her lover's side, she gave birth to the child in full view. People were shocked, and Joan died of excessive blood loss during childbirth. Since then, it is said that all papal trips will bypass ominous places, which has been circulated in history. It was he who got the Pope pregnant. What a fantastic story it is. In fact, there are traces in history. Croce, the author of The Pontifical Woman, also pointed out in an interview with the media that although the Catholic Church insists that the story of the Pontifical Woman Joan is a unofficial history, there are more than 500 ancient manuscripts recorded, including famous artists such as Platinum, Petrarch and Boccaccio. Cross said: the fire of hope lit by a woman like Joan can only shine very weakly in the dark, but it has never been completely extinguished. Therefore, we associate China with Empress Wu Zetian and Fu Shanxiang, the first female champion. There are tangible evidences for the good and bad history. Think again about the tragic fate of the foreign pope who died in childbirth. In fact, China, two great women in history, is much better than it in both luck and final destination. Of course, I think everyone can see that every family has its own problems, including power.
