Talk:Luisa Piccarreta

Untitled
This is a topic related with an official issue of the Catholic Church, so respect to the ecclesiastical authorities should be observed. The process of canonization and beatification is a formal canonical judgment about the life of a person "in, with and for" the Catholic Church. No bishop could pretend to begin the process of canonization of a non Catholic or heretic person, and no person could sentence the process before it ends.

This is a shoddy article beginning to end, full of POV. Can someone rectify this who actually like, knows stuff and can make it in non-POV encyclopedic form. Enchantedeve (talk) 07:45, 22 November 2010 (UTC)Enchanted Eve


 * Yea and Amen. Thanks Enchadedeve, well said.  I started this article as he seemed notable for living of nothing but communion wafers.  Then all the other stuff arrived and all your comments are spot on.  I am beginning to wonder if drastic pruning is the answer - but an encyclopaedic rewrite would be better, if someone can do it.

 * OK I have given it a drastic prune, removing a lot of OR, POV material and stuff that was confusing or encyclopaedic. Springnuts (talk) 20:55, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

So a non-believer wrote about a saintly woman (not a 'HE') and now this person want it to be 'PRUNED' because it does not reflect his non-beliefs. By the way, she lived through taking the Holy Eucharist not 'wafers' which clearly shows this persons lack of knowledge. Mimi

It's definitely concerning when we have laity (non Catholic Church Authorities) providing a censorship on what a Servant of God (case for Sainthood has been opened) can or cannot have possibly done. Most works by Saints, or Servants of God, were not written down by the Saints (or Sevants) themselves; that's why Canonization relies HEAVILY on testimony and witness accounts. Please don't assign that as "points of view"... Luisa's confessor is now a Saint. What does that tell you? Read her "Hours of the Passion"... the foreword is written by, guess who? A Saint, her confessor. -H
