I am still trying to find who gave a man authority to pronounce anybody a "saint".

Of course the biblical definition of saint is anyone who trusts in Christ Jesus.

Too bad Rome's traditions are more authoritative to it than holy scripture.

Too bad you possess such a poor knowledge of Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition and the history of Christianity. By the way, you do know that "saint" is found 56 times in the Old Testament, don't you? Also, what authority did Rome invoke when it added chapter and verse division and numbering, which weren't in the originals, to Sacred Scripture?

I notice that (A) you've been called ignorant, which is the mandatory response to anyone who points out some anti-Biblical position held by The Church {tm}; and (B) your undeniable Biblical observation has not been countered.
