[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mike111: [QB] [b]The third Pope, Anacletus.[/b] Pope Saint Anacletus (very rarely written as Anencletus), was the third Roman Pope (after St. Peter and St. Linus). He is also listed as Pope Cletus and his pontificate was once erroneously split into Cletus and Anacletus. The name "Cletus" in Ancient Greek means "one who has been called", and "Anacletus" means "one who has been called back". Also "Anencletus" (Greek: Ανέγκλητος) means "unimpeachable". St Cletus/Anacletus was traditionally said to have been a Roman, and to have been pope for twelve years. The Annuario Pontificio states: "For the first two centuries, the dates of the start and the end of the pontificate are uncertain." It gives the years 80 to 92 as the reign of Pope Cletus/Anacletus. Other sources give the years 77 to 88. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [b]Anacletus could go either way: if we knew where his political support came from, and who made him Pope, it would probably illuminate the matter.[/b] [/QB][/QUOTE]
