  Valentinus - A Gnostic for All Seasons
Valentinus, the Gnostic who almost became pope, was thus the only man who could have succeeded in gaining a form of permanent positive recognition for the Gnostic approach to the message of Christ.
Valentinus, in opposition to this guilt-ridden view of life, held that the above-noted defect is not the result of our wrongdoing, but is inherent in the system of existence wherein we live and move and have our being.
Valentinus is in very good company indeed when he establishes the proposition of the wrong system of false reality that can be set aright by the human spirit.

 Wikipedia: Pope Gregory IV
Gregory IV, pope (827-844), was chosen to succeed Valentinus in December 827, on which occasion he recognized the supremacy of the Frankish emperor Louis the Pious in the most unequivocal manner.
His name is chiefly associated with the quarrels between Lothair I and Louis the Debonaire, in whom he espoused the cause of the former, for whom, in the Campus Mendacii, or "field of lies" as it is usually called (833), he secured by his treachery a temporary advantage.
The institution of the feast of All Saints is usually attributed to this pope.
