Francis took a deep breath and paused for a moment before reciting the saint-making formula in Latin

Wonder why the Apostles didn't have a saint-making formula in the Greek...

I guess that's because it's a 'not in the bible' far newer custom which does not exist in any of the scriptures that your religion invented...

Rom_15:25 But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints.

1Co 1:2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

It's a pity your religion didn't pick a different name for all these people that supposedly are more holy than the rest of us because all born again Christians are saints...

Well, Fox News may call it a "saint-making formula," but of course it's not5 it at all. God makes people saints, not formulas.

After there's been a well-attested miracle or two, the "formula," is more or less saying, "OK, God, we hear ya loud and clear."
