To: Quix; Marysecretary

I meant nothing personal about Marysecretary, who I know strictly from these posts. Nearly all Protestants, not just her, arrogate the term "saint" to themselves and ignore that the canonized saints of the Church all had remarkable lives, all had their faith tested severely and many gave their lives for it literally. This is the distinction I am drawing your attention to.

We don't exactly ignore the catholic saints. We just believe that God doesn't play favorites and He considers all of us as His saints. Many christians lead remarkable lives too. You don't hear much about them because the media won't print anything good about what christians are doing (and suffering) all over the world.
