Pope Benedict XVI names five new saints.
So…… we need more saints.
The previous holder of the silly hat made over 300 of them. That’s a stack of saints.
My understanding is to become a saint to you need to have led a holy life, which I think means you didn’t put your people poker in the wrong hole. You then have to, once your deaded, do a miracle. You know, cure someone of cancer.
What a crock.
Wouldn’t it be much better to let people know how great they are before they die? Once you’re dead, you’re dead, you do fuck all when you’re dead, you might rot a bit and probably smell, which is why you get stuck in the ground. Or you get burned. Either way, game over, no chance of interceding on someones behalf to sky fairies to cause a miracle.
Come on guys, stopping messing around, do something useful now and forget the crap.
