Becky, are you serious, or just trying to start a discussion of the Church's Canonization procedures ? I am not really "up" on the procedures, myself, but the Church affirms that SOME are in Heaven . The procedure does provide for, among other things, an evaluation of the occurance of two(?) miracles occuring due to the intercession of the "candidate" for canonization . Remember, this is an over-simplification .The idea is taht the miracles are a sort of confirmation by God that, yes, that person has made it to heaven .
This is NOT to claim that others are not There

I was very serious. It still seems a contradiction to me.
