I am a huge secularist but nevertheless I find the St. Joseph River (seen here!) attractive.

"In 1889, Pope Leo XIII issued the encyclical Quamquam pluries in which he urged Catholics to pray to Joseph as patron of the Church... He prescribed that every October, a prayer to Saint Joseph be added to the Rosary, with attached indulgences," ugh, this is nonsense, I'm a secularist looking at a river.
