  • (Before I get any Replies about "muh the procedure of canonization", this is only a hypothetical and a fun little thread)

    I would Personally choose Reginald Garriou-Lagrange OP.
    Not only would Lagrange be a leading figures in the Neo-Thomistic movement ,who rejuvenated Thomism in the modern west, but he would be a staunch Anti-Modernist, Lagrange would fiercely teach St Pius X encyclical Pascendi Dominici gregis  and he would see it reconfirmed in Pius XII's Humani generis.
    Lagr
    ange Piety as an OP and his Faithfulness to a Traditional Eternal Rome should be forever remembered.

    That was an the obvious saintly choice.
    God Bless Mons Abp Lefebvre!

  • Fr. Leonard Feeney, who fought the good fight against the termites and worms before the house fell. 

    You asked . . . :cowboy:
    Rom. 3:25 Whom God hath proposed to be a propitiation, through faith in his blood, to the shewing of his justice, for the remission of former sins" 

    Apoc 17:17 For God hath given into their hearts to do that which pleaseth him: that they give their kingdom to the beast, till the words of God be fulfilled.

    Another great choice.

    Some older trads might also recall Fr. John of the Cross of the traditional Benedictines.
    Rom 5: 20 - "But where sin increased, grace abounded all the more."

  • Archbishop Lefebvre is the obvious choice. I would probably take a good hard look at Savonarola, too. 
    "Be kind; do not seek the malicious satisfaction of having discovered an additional enemy to the Church... And, above all, be scrupulously truthful. To all, friends and foes alike, give that serious attention which does not misrepresent any opinion, does not distort any statement, does not mutilate any quotation. We need not fear to serve the cause of Christ less efficiently by putting on His spirit". (Vermeersch, 1913).

    Mith,

    Savonarola, very interesting. Good one.

    Apoc 17:17 For God hath given into their hearts to do that which pleaseth him: that they give their kingdom to the beast, till the words of God be fulfilled.

    I think People Underestimate his Impact in Regards against Free market Usury with the abhorrent evils of Laissez-Faire Capitalism and how it allow Bourgeois ((Foreign)) Influence. 
    His Political Economic thinking is up there with Louis De Bonald ,another good contender, for his Anti-Enlightenment and Counter-Revolution work.
