He's a close second for me. I almost chose him as my patron.

Looking back now, I should've chosen him, but instead I chose Albert the Great since he was a patron of the sciences

[Luminesa]

To all the Catholics, Orthodox, Anglicans and everybody else who commemorates the Saints; who is your favorite Saint, and why?

St. Francis de Sales is my favorite, tied with St. Therese of Liseux, who is my confirmation saint. Their stories and their spiritual lives resonated deeply with what I hope to accomplish in the world, little deeds done with great love and gentleness. St. Francis de Sales's Introduction to the Devout Life is a very important book for me, as it guided me toward building a foundation for my spiritual life as I became a teenager. The Story of A Soul made me fall more in love with Jesus and with my faith during high school. Other favorites include St. Michael, St. John the Apostle, St. John Paul II, St. Mother Theresa, St. Francis of Assisi, St. John Vianney, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Philomena, St. Athanasius, St. John Chrysostom...

Too Many Saints

[Nakena]

Whats with so many people converting to orthodox?

Specificially right-wingers.

Specificially right-wingers.

Some genuinely just admire the Orthodox Church. Others join because they hate Pope Francis or believe that Orthodox Christianity is the perfect alt-right religion, which has resulted in at least one anathema.

[Napkizemlja]

To all the Catholics, Orthodox, Anglicans and everybody else who commemorates the Saints; who is your favorite Saint, and why?

Tough one. I'd say among my favorites are Jude the Apostle, Dymphna, Cosmas and Damian.

We often make fun of their types tbh. They have no place in the Church and Heimbach being excommunicated was hilarious.

What right winger does not love the church of Putin? Manliest man alive.

Uhhhh Putin isn’t the Patriarch, last I heard.

[Duhon]

To all the Catholics, Orthodox, Anglicans and everybody else who commemorates the Saints; who is your favorite Saint, and why?

Saint Fred Rogers for his devotion to the education of children.

But really, San Martin de Porres, just for walking the talk.

[Duhon]

Patronsaint of whores.

Look it up.

[Hanafuridake]

Saint Nicholas.

Wasn't he excommunicated for that?

[Grenartia]

The Orthodox Church isn't the church of Putin.

Someone tell him that.
