    “Oh, and as proof that God has a sense of irony, Denis is the patron saint of people suffering from headaches.”

    This is not irony dammit!

    Preaching the gospel is not a weird reason. The legend sounds weird, if not to be true. So the case of St.Denis does not fit in this column.
    The other stories weren't so weird.
    Why do we want to judge them? And nobody has quoted any authentic source for these stories mentioned.
