he created our current calendar\n\nOOPS that was gregory XIII not the III...the others are right...right off of wikipedia....\n\nSaint Gregory III, pope (731-741), a Syrian by birth, succeeded Gregory II in March 731. His pontificate, like that of his predecessor, was disturbed by the iconoclastic controversy in the Byzantine Empire, in which he vainly invoked the intervention of Charles Martel. Also during his reign he conferred the pallium on Saint Boniface in Germany, Willibald in Bohemia, and Bede in England carried on their most successful missionary labours. He died on November 29, 741.

The Roman Catholic Religion.  It is the true religion instituted by our Lord, Jesus Christ, Himself.\nPope Benedict XVI has a direct lineage from St. Peter whom Jesus Christ, in the beginning annointed as "the Rock." of His Church.  The similarity of which is George Bush now, from George Washington, our first  US President.  There is a historical linkage.
