Sainthood? Well the Catholic Church’s official DEVIL’S ADVOCATE will thoroughly vet her. And from that knowledge, combined with the good stuff, sainthood will be decided on.

The “devil’s advocate” was abolished decades ago.

cloudmountain, The devil’s advocate’s role has been downgraded so that those proposing a candidate for canonization do not have to listen to any negative information he has collected. Previously, the devil’s advocate had the power to halt the process, even indefinitely, until his objections were answered to his satisfaction. Sadly, this is no longer the case.
