Answer the question, "If X IS a saint why are Theresa, Francis, Patrick....ad nausium....NOT saints". 3. By venerating saints you would raise all kinds of uncomfotable questions about Sola fide. I'm surprized Ken didn't chime in here. Must be distracted. If you venerate Saints then you must: 1. Know Church history beyond the last 50 years 2.
