What is the object of the All Saints Day? It is the veneration of all souls that are in Heaven, even if they are not officially canonized or beatified. Anyone who is in Heaven is a holy person. He or she is in the presence of God, sees God face-to-face, and is entirely pleasing to God.

I would suppose that Prof. Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira would never have anticipated the canonization of Pope Paul VI.

So we can cut him some slack here.

Msgr. Perez doesn't get off the hook so easily, though, so he assured us that we can prescind from venerating Paul VI today, even though he did get "officially canonized" just in time for All Saints' Day.
