One of the miracles of Saint Conrad was regurgitating a poisonous spider alive.

When Lebunius preached at the pagan Westphalians during one of their festivals, and admonished them to abandon their heathen ways, they rose up and tried to slay him.

Honestly, I do not condone this, but I DO understand.
