Commemoration of the Canonization of Our Holy Father Francis.
Hardly two years had elapsed since the death of St. Francis when Gregory IX, well known as Cardinal Ugolino and the friend and protector of the saint, decided to enroll him solemnly among the saints of the Church. The Pope caused the numerous reports of Francis’s virtues and miracles to be collected, and coming in person to Assisi, canonized him solemnly of July 16, 1228 in the church of St. George (now St. Clare). – (from) The Franciscan Supplement.

I know of no question that Voltaire asked which St. Thomas Aquinas did not ask before him. Only St. Thomas not only asked, but answered the question.
