Saints of wayism

Religion-wiki — for all religions and none

This page allows the discussion and nomination of Wayist saints. There are three sets of saints, Saints and Modern Day Saints. A modern day saint saint can only be approved into saints 100 years after their death, and a contemporary saint can only be approved into modern day saints after their death. This allows more contemporary people to be nominated to become saints, without having the determine if their teaching and beliefs will still be relevant in the distant future.

Please feel free to nominate new saints. Please include a summary of why you feel their teachings and beliefs have had a major impact on humanity, include a +1 and ~~~~ sign your post. If you agree or disagree with a nomination you may also comment the post with your +1 or -1.
