What does canoneer mean?

Answer 1

Canonization means that the individual has been thoroughly investigated by the Church and it was determined that the person is undoubtedly in Heaven and worthy of veneration. To canonize means to declare the person is truly a saint.

Answer 2

There are several definitions for 'canon'. However, since the category for the question is 'Dance', perhaps the most appropriate answer would be the definition related to music. As such, the definition for 'canon' is a musical composition in which the voices begin one after another, at regular intervals, successively taking up the same subject.

Answer 3

The canonization process is used by the Catholic Church to investigate a person to see if they lived a life of heroic virtue and all evidence indicates that they are truly in Heaven and worthy of veneration.The canonization process is a lengthy investigative procedure carried out by the Church to determine if a person deserves the title of 'saint.'

First, you have to die. Once you have been dead at least 5 years a cause
for sainthood can be opened. The local bishop or other religious leader
will assign someone to collect all sorts of documents and conduct
interiews about the life of the candidate. Once they have all the
information, the file will be sent to the Sacred Congregation for the
causes of Saints in Rome. They will study the file and, if it seems the
person exhibited some form of heroic virtue, that person will be declared
a Servant of God and an official Cause for Sainthood will be opened.

More investigations and interviews will be conducted and if the person
passes all favorably, they will be named as Venerable.

Next, more investigations and at least one miracle must be confirmed and
verified due to the intercession of the candidate. If all goes well, the
candidate will then be Beatified by the Pope and receive the title of
Blessed. Mother Teresa of Calcutta is at this stage right now.

In the final stage, more investigations and at least one more miracle must
be verified. Once all that has been done, the file is turned over to the
pope who will make the final decision. It will be up to the pope to
declare a person a saint and then arrangements are made for the official
canonization cerimonies.

This process can take many years, even centuries.

Of course, the person became a saint the moment they entered heaven. The
Church just needs to investigate to make sure the candidate is worthy of
emulation and makes a good role model for future generations.To sanction, to glorify, or to approve authoritatively.

Answer 4

To canonize means to recognize a person as a saint. Only God can make a saint but the Catholic Church investigates each candidate to verify that they are indeed in heaven.
In a much broader sense, canonization means to accept as part of a religion's articles of faith.
