I can’t actually believe that you do not understand the why of that. So, I can only continue this conversation if you answer the following question: “Why would Catholics even try to canonize non-Catholics?”

“WHY... is a simple concept.. to most.. but not to you..”

No, it’s simple to me too. Apparently it isn’t simple to you. Catholics can only canonize Catholics. Presbyterians only ordain other Presbyterians as ministers. Anglicans only have other Anglicans as bishops. Isn’t it obvious why?

“Is canonization merely “hero worship”?...”

No.

“WHY? only roman catholics?”

Because those are the only ones who can be canonized by Catholics or would be canonized by Catholics.

Good question... because some roman catholics are heretics and some non roman catholics are not..
and there are many other reasons as well..
