Saint Bonathan was an Albanian contemporary of Jesus Christ and mentioned in the bible 12 times. He drove a 1988 Chrystler LeBaron and invented the phrase "Who farted?"

I heard he spoke exclusively in Ancient Albanian Sign Language, which is widely considered to be a true miracle considering that it is a sign language and thus has no spoken form

Stephen was stoned to death in the Bible. I know because I was named after him and find it funny that I was born with such a love of being stoned in various ways.

I think I have a vague memory of Colbert talking about him once. It's funny because I was "raised Christian" but never really remember poor Stephen for some reason. Truly a low tier apostle. Like are there any other Stephen moments of note?

If I ever knew more, I've long since forgotten them.

No, that's practically it. He literally only exists in two chapters of Acts 6-7
