# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Pius I led the Roman church from around 140 until his death near 154, though records place the span as loosely as 142–161. His papacy coincided with the rise of Gnostic and Valentinian movements, and he worked to counter both. The Catholic Church names him a saint with a feast day on 11 July, but whether he died a martyr remains unknown — the details of his death, like much of his life, lost to the distance.
