Astounding? There's Gotta Be Another Word For It...

I never heard of "Saint" Christina the Amazing until today (I checked into Sister Martha's blog). First, let it be said that the Church does not recognize her as a saint - she was considered one when she was alive in the early 12th century.Secondly, if the stories are true, I don't think "Astounding" is good enough of a word. She died, but then at her funeral Mass she got up and levitated to the top of the church. She said she couldn't stand the smell of the souls that were in the church with her. Then she told everyone she had been to hell, purgatory, and heaven. Then she spent the rest of her life doing penance for the souls in purgatory - throwing herself into fireplaces, running through briar patches, swimming in freezing water for days on end - without getting so much as a scratch. Astounding? How about amazing, astonishing, astounding, blindsiding, dumbfounding (also dumfounding), eye-opening, flabbergasting, jarring, jaw-dropping, jolting, shocking, startling, stunning, stupefying?
