CHAPTER

Exploring Stigmatism and Controversial Saints

This chapter examines the lives and legacies of saints known for stigmatism, such as Padre Pio and St. Catherine of Siena, and the scrutiny they faced from the Church. The speaker aims to fill a gap in literature by providing a scholarly perspective on the complexities surrounding these figures, particularly focusing on the contrasting views of popes like John XXIII. Additionally, it highlights ongoing debates about modern claims of stigmata and the historical skepticism faced by mystical figures.
