The 4-2-1 Meme
Vehige over at Thursday Night Gumbo has tagged us with another meme. The meme is to identify four favorite Saints, two favorite Blesseds, and name one person you think should have been canonized (I presume this to mean someone for whom there is currently no cause in process but you think there should be). Well, isn’t this a predicament. It’s like standing among all your aunts and uncles as a child and being asked to say which one is your favorite. It doesn’t help much knowing that there will be no jealousy.
O.k, here they are:
Four Favorite Saints
 The Queen of All Saints, of course!
 Her most Chaste Spouse, St. Joseph my patron saint
So far it looks like I am copying off Vehige’s paper doesn’t it?
 The Angelic Doctor, St. Thomas, an intellectual inspiration and model of humility
 St. Ignatius of Loyola, a soldier who transferred his martial skills into obedient service to the Vicar of Christ
Two Favorite Blesseds (or more)
Well they are for genetic reasons I will admit:
 Blessed Marie Rose Durocher
 Blessed Andre Bessette
Should Have Been Canonized
Well, I don’t want to sound presumptuous but since I have recently been considering him:
 Guess who this is…
Now how about a category for those whose cause is proceeding. If we had one, I would add
 John Paul the Great
and
 Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Vehige has listed two victims…err…tags, so here are my two: Thomas, our American Papist and Father Christopher Phillips at the Atonement On-line Blog.
