This is the spiritual journey of me, Eccles, my big brother Bosco, and my Grate-Anti Moly. Eccles is saved, but we've got real problems with Bosco and Anti.
This is me, Eccles

The World Cup of post-Biblical saints - nominations requested
I am asking for trouble here, as I shall probably be swamped with nominations.
I decided to make this world cup post-Biblical, first because the Blessed Virgin Mary would certainly win otherwise, and second because even if she were excluded, we'd only end up with final rounds including obvious people like
Peter, Paul, James and John (at a guess).
This is what a saint looks like.
NOMINATION RULES.
1. Only saints not mentioned in the Bible will be allowed to enter.
2. You may nominate up to 3 canonized saints (no mere blesseds, please!) If you nominate more then only the first 3 will be recorded. Please nominate either by replying to this blog posting, or by replying to the advert in Twitter/X.
I will probably not reply to you, but I will take note of legitimate nominations.
3. No changing your mind - I don't want to fiddle around with last-minute changes.
What you say first, goes.
4. I shall add a few top saints of my own, if they are omitted.
5. Voting will be by means of Twitter polls as in
previous world cups.
6. My decision on all things is final, not to say infallible.
This is what another saint looks like.
