You can believe miracles are a requirement for sainthood

Except that that's not what he or I believe, is it. Miracles are a requirement for canonization, which is the public and infallible recognition of someone's sainthood, and the formal proclamation that they exhibited heroic Christian virtue worthy of emulation. Miracles are not a requirement for sainthood per se.

But go ahead; keep up your strawman arguments.

“which is the public and infallible recognition of someone’s sainthood”

God never requires a miracle to publically recognize a saint.

Scripture never teaches there is any “infallible way” to recognize “someone’s sainthood.”

God simply declares all true believers as saints.

Nor does God have a procedure involving money and advocacy to recognize sainthood.

It is all man made religion.

God made a simple declaration.

Rome made it pagan.
