Dante is the only Catholic on that list, which is not hard to figure out if you read even a little instead of making shit threads.

Dante was atheist if you actually cared enough to read his books. All great authors were atheist, but they were too afraid to come out because they'd be burnt at the stake for being a witch.

Religion can't make works of art because it's not a concrete object. Tell me an instance when an abstract subject created something.

Dante is literally in Heaven and one of these days the Catholic Church will realize this and make him a saint, like he should be.

Ireland's been using the church to funnel it's magical literature powers internationally since the incident in 411ad. You don't really think they left shit unedited all that time. Pro-tip: Halloween wasn't in the original.
