The Word of God is quite clear that ALL believers are saints, many (MANY) of which are quite alive.

Yeah, but some saints are santier. St. Joe of Cupertino could fly. Can you fly? I can't. Not without a plane or hang glider.

And sometimes I say things like, "Can't stick around, have to fly." But I know I won't really fly, and am filled with shame.

“What makes a person a saint?
Introduction. All Christians are called to be saints. Saints are persons in heaven (officially canonized or not), who lived heroically virtuous lives, offered their life for others, or were martyred for the faith, and who are worthy of imitation.“
