Pope John Paul I (born Alberto Luciani) (October 17, 1912 – September 28, 1978) was the pope before Pope John Paul II. He was the Vicar of Christ for only 30 days before dying of a heart attack during his sleep, though conspiracy theories continue to allege that he was assassinated. One of the foremost people making these claims is an author named David Yallop, who wrote a book called In God's Name claiming that he had been murdered because he was planning to lift the Roman Catholic Church's ban on contraceptives and this offended the church's conservative leadership.
