I thought today would be great day to do a blog about St. Valentine. You know, my usual sarcastic stuff, maybe make a joke about how God wants you to be in love but not be lovers.But to my dismay, I discovered that St. Valentine is a fake! He never existed!
Or more specifically, there were actually something like fourteen martyred saints in ancient Rome named Valentinus, which means worthy, strong or powerful (from valens). It was just a popular name, nothing more.
What's more, we know almost nothing about any of them. We don't know why the Romans
