"Those who object are all wacky dissenters," according to you. How do you know this? Merely because a journalist in USA Today cites only people like McBrien? This proves nothing--least of all that those who object are ALL wacky dissenters. It is not wacky to believe that a man who was short-tempered, dishonest and vain should not be canonized.

Thanks for stopping by, objecting to the Pope’s canonizations, and with the likes of the more liberal dissenters quoted above, fully rounding out the proof of my point. I had a strange feeling I could count on you.

There have been other saints with short tempers: thomas aquinas for one. Not sure on the vanity/dishonesty. But we're all sinners, even saints.
