Pope Francis has recognized a second miracle attributed to Blessed Carlo Acutis, clearing the way for him to become the Catholic Church's first millennial saint. Acutis, who was born in London but grew up in Milan and attended daily mass from a young age, used his computer skills to create a website cataloging Eucharistic miracles and Marian apparitions.
The second miracle involved a Costa Rican woman named Valeria Valverde, who suffered severe head trauma after falling off her bicycle in Florence. Her mother prayed at Acutis' tomb in Assisi for her daughter's recovery, and soon after, Valverde began to breathe without the need for a ventilator and regained the use of her upper limbs and speech.
Carlo Acutis was diagnosed with leukemia at age 15 and died in 2006. His body is now displayed in a shrine in Assisi, Italy. The path to sainthood typically requires two miracles attributed to prayers made to an individual after their death.

The article contains some inflammatory rhetoric and an appeal to authority, but no formal or dichotomous fallacies are present. The author describes the subject of the article as a 'London-born teenager who died of leukaemia aged 15' and later refers to him as a 'computer prodigy' and 'Catholic teaching online'. This could be seen as an attempt to elicit an emotional response from the reader, but it does not constitute a formal fallacy. The author also quotes Archbishop Domenico Sorrentino of Assisi stating that 'The Church in Assisi is in celebration', which is an appeal to authority as the archbishop's statement carries weight due to his position within the Catholic church. However, this does not significantly impact the overall content or argument of the article and therefore does not reduce its score significantly.
