[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are so many amazing saints. I am always interested in finding new canonized saints to learn about. I love reading how these people followed in their life God’s will and how they can intercede for us in our prayers to God[/quote]

I was raised Catholic and didn't have a favorite saint.  I never could understand the need to have a saint intercede for me.  I went straight to the main man.[/quote]

It’s like a childhood with no friends. [/quote]

I had lots of friends, like most kids.  They were all real people, not made up or long dead, like saints.[/quote]

Some kids have imaginary friends for a while.  This is what the saints are like, I guess.[/quote]

Except many saints are well-documented individuals.

I get that you are trying to riff off the invisible sky daddy meme of 13 year old edgelords, but it doesn’t work in this case.

Anyone who isn’t a Nazi should see why someone would look up to Maximillian Kobe. He is a model of bravery and self-sacrifice in the face of overwhelming terror and repression. We need his example now more than ever.

Better a parasocial relationship with a saint like Kobe than a pop star or gamer.[/quote]

Ben Franklin and George Washington weren't saints. They were't even Catholics.  I look up to them and bet you do too.[/quote]
