People who have Achieved Sainthood

To become a saint in the Church of Reality you have to put yourself in a position of grave personal risk in order to promote an idea that is real in the face of a public that refuses to face reality. People who do this are heroes and are the visionaries that move humanity forward against the tide of fear and religious mythology. These people deserve an honored place in the memory of human history and I therefore am going to declare them as saints.

Sainthood in this church is based more on advancing the cause of reality rather the just doing good things. Thus a saint in this church might be someone who contributed significantly to science or protecting rights necessary for the pursuit of Reality rather than those who are without sins. People who have done great things deserve to be recognized, but there are plenty of other churches to recognize other achievements.
