Why did the Church decide to make Saint Caroline a saint?
The Catholic Church and most christians believe that purity is a virtue. Some Christians take purity pledges, like the Jonas brothers, who are not Catholic but are Christian. To be abstinent or to resist rape is considered virtuous. To encourage a respect for purity, the Catholic Church has canonized some young girls who resisted forcible intercourse. Maria Goretti was killed by an attacker and canonized around 1950. Her attacker, who had gone to prison and repented his sin/crime, was present in Rome for her canonization. Caroline was raped and killed by a Russian soldier in 1914. She is about to be canonized a saint for the same reason.

What was the most famous church in the middle ages?
The Roman Catholic Church was the important Church in England during the Middle Ages. In the geographical area of present England, there was a Church referred to as the Celtic Church before the mission of St. Augustine of Canterbury. This Church was in conflict with the Roman Catholic Church about two very important issues. One was the date of Easter, and the other was the tonsure (haircut) of the monks. The Council of Whitby met to decide these vital issues, and ruled in favor of the practices of the Roman Catholic Church, which decided the whole things as far as Northumbria was concerned. The Celtic Church leaders gradually took on the practices of the Roman Catholics after that.
