Because the Church can’t conduct a canonization process for someone outside the Church.

Because the canonization process cannot be used for non-Catholics.

I did. The Catholic Church cannot give sacraments to non-Catholics (except in very rare circumstances). The Catholic Church doesn’t beatify non-Catholics. The Catholic Church doesn’t canonize non-Catholics. Those things are for Catholics only. They aren’t open to non-Catholics. There is no process to canonize a non-Catholic and to even attempt it would make no sense because of what canonization is.

I believe the loop is your, hosepipe.

Nonetheless, I am encouraged by your first step toward the Catholic Church and your desire for The Church, to recognize saintly Christians.

The Glory to Jesus Christ.
