About this listen

 Inside the Vatican, thousands of sainthood causes languish in limbo - not rejected, but deliberately delayed. This episode investigates the most contested candidates awaiting judgment, from wartime Pope Pius XII and his disputed Holocaust record to American media pioneer Archbishop Fulton Sheen and radical social activist Dorothy Day. We reveal the power struggles that determine which causes advance and which wait for a more favorable moment, examining how the Church navigates historical reassessment, internal politics, and external pressure when deciding whose virtue deserves official recognition.
