“Pope Joan” never existed and there is no evidence whatsoever that she did.
There are no bona fide documents from her - not a single one.
There are no contempory documents which attest to her.
There are no witnesses to her - not a single one.
Only liberals and bigots believe in the story.
But the total lack of evidence is, itself, evidence of the cunning effectiveness of the Vatican coverup! Also, everyone knows that prior to 856 there were no privies; people just, you know, squatted wherever and whenever the need arose.
Seriously, when did the Telegraph turn into the Weekly World News?
