List of popes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hermannus Contractus may have been the first historian to number the popes continuously.
His list ends in 1049 with Pope Leo IX as number 154. Several changes were made to the list
during the 20th century. Antipope Christopher was considered legitimate for a long time.
Pope-elect Stephen was considered legitimate under the name Stephen II until the 1961
edition, when his name was erased. Although these changes are no longer controversial, a
number of modern lists still include this "first Pope Stephen II". It is probable that this is
because they are based on the 1913 edition of the Catholic Encyclopedia, which is in the
public domain.
A significant number of these popes have been recognized as saints, including 48 out of the
first 50 consecutive popes, and others are in the sainthood process. The first 31 popes, with
the exception of Zephyrinus, died as martyrs (see List of murdered popes).

12 popes have been members of third orders, also called "tertiaries" or "Third Order Secular,"
and all of them of the Secular Franciscans:
Gregory IX, Gregory X, Martin V, Innocent XII, Clement XII, Pius IX, Leo XIII, Pius X,
Benedict XV, Pius XI, Pius XII, John XXIII
Pope-elect Stephen, who died before being consecrated, has not been on the Vatican's
official list of popes since 1961, but appears on lists dating from before 1960.[35] The
numbering of following popes called Stephen are nowadays given as Pope Stephen II
(752757) to Pope Stephen IX (10571058), rather than StephenIII to StephenX.
When Simon de Brion became pope in 1281, he chose to be called Martin. At that time,
MarinusI and MarinusII were mistakenly considered to be Martin II and Martin III
respectively, and so, erroneously, Simon de Brion became Pope Martin IV.[36]
Pope Donus II, said to have reigned about 974, never existed. The belief resulted from
the confusion of the title dominus (lord) with a proper name.
Pope Joan also never existed; however, legends about her may have originated from
stories about the pornocracy.[37]
The status of Antipope John XXIII was uncertain for hundreds of years, and was finally
settled in 1958 when Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli announced his own name as
JohnXXIII. Baldassare Cossa, who was Antipope JohnXXIII, served as a Cardinal of
the reunited church before his death in 1419 and his remains are found in the Florence
Baptistery.
Those who believe in Sedevacantism say that there have been no legitimate popes
since Pius XII. This is because they consider all popes since the Second Vatican
Council to be heretics.[38][39]
