John the Revelator ??? WTF.

St. John the Apostle was the dedicated disciple of Jesus, who kept his faith in the face of imprisonment and torture. He was a man of peace, and did not own a sword, let alone a Roman legionnaire's gladius.

It was St. Peter who took the sword from the Chief Priest's body guard in the Garden of Gethsemane prior to the passion. St. John was a pacifist.

As a Catholic, I appreciate the various references in Dexter to the Catholic faith, which while not always flattering, have usually been done with sensitivity and accuracy.

In this case, you really misrepresented the point of St John's life, which is really sad.
