With all the leading virtues of Rizal like Love of God, love of Fellowmen, self-control, self sacrifice...and many others (24 in all), CAN RIZAL BE A SAINT?...
I BADLY NEED IDEAS/REACTIONS ON THIS...
for me, Rizal CAN'T be a saint because he doesn't have the blessing or the approval of the CHURCH. Coz, as we know there will be a rigorous process before a person be beatified and cannonized...there should be a MIRACLE done by that person...
But, Rizal doesn't need to be a saint for us to give him due respect for all the things he has done for our country, in fact we have given much respect and importance to Rizal than most saints. Rizal's life works and writings has been incorporated in OUR EDUCATION while no saint that has been given such importance by studying his whole life.
It is enough for Rizal to be our national hero and doesn't need to be a saint. We have already put him in the pedestal of honor and it will be too much if he will be a saint...
