Saints

The Classification of Saints

1) SAINT SECOND CLASS
To be reserved for all human beings deserving of Sainthood.
Example: Saint Norton the First, Emperor of the United States and Protector of Mexico (his grave is an official POEE shrine).

THE FOLLOWING FOUR CATEGORIES ARE RESERVED FOR FICTIONAL BEINGS WHO, NOT BEING ACTUAL, ARE MORE CAPABLE OF PERFECTION:

2) LANCE SAINT
Good Saint material, and definitely inspiring.
Example: Saint Yossarian (Catch 22, Heller)

3) LIEUTENANT SAINT
Excellent Goddess-saturated Saint.
Example: Saint Quixote (Don Quixote, Cervantes)

4) BRIGADIER SAINT
Comparable to Lieutenant Saint, but has an established following (fictional or factual).
Example: Saint Bonokon (Cat's Cradle, Vonnegut)

5) FIVE STAR SAINT
The Five Apostles of Eris.

Everybody understands Mickey Mouse.
Few understand Herman Hesse.
Only a handful understand Albert Einstein.
Nobody understood Emperor Norton.
