Would you rather...

Top 10 Reasons I’d rather be a saint than a reverend:

10) People admire saints

9) Saint has a shorter abbreviation

8) Saints get to go by their first names

7) People remember how saints die

6) Better to be canonized than cannon fodder

5) The stigmata is more fun than being stigmatized

4) You get a cause or a profession to look after instead of a nebulous portion of a congregation

3) Becoming a saint only requires the approval of the Holy See, while becoming a reverend requires the approval of the CPM (Committee on Preparation for Ministry)

2) Becoming a saint requires only one miracle, while becoming a reverend requires dozens

1) Santa Claus is a saint, seminary professors are reverends
