What’s Wrong with America?
2 November 2006, 3 pm | Poser
Only eight Roman Catholic saints have been beatitfied from the United States. And of those eight, I believe only one was born in America; the others were immigrants. Mexico has nearly 30 saints. Japan, a country with a small population of Catholics, has 20 saints.
So, what’s wrong with America? What is it about our culture that does not produce and/or recognize more saintly and holy people?
