Of course not, driftdiver. But it is certainly acceptable to recognize someone’s virtuous earthly life, in this case via the process of canonization.

Certainly its acceptable to recognize people. That really isn’t the question though is it?

Are Saints recognized through earthly canonization the equivalent of Saints named in the Bible?
