A big Dragon killer was St Michael
and St George was only in the second class in this.
AND in the sixties, - along with the child-saints who were canonised because they were [yes I know this is cr+p} said to have been eaten by Jews, such as Little St Hugh of Lincoln, St George and the child saints were decanonised.
That Pope,he could do anything, walk on water probably, and so now he should be referred to as Mr George.
