>>23354576>idc what man or some church thinks.the Orthodox Church does not Canonize saints without clear proof of sainthood, that is at least 3 of the following:
>virtuous life>did not spread heresy>martyred>body remains incorrupt after repose>performs miracles (answers prayers)St John Chrysostom was so based that he was hated by the imperial aristocracy AND much of the Church hierarchy
he was exiled at least 3 times and finally reposed in exile...
he was canonized a saint AGAINST the wishes of the hierarchy, an oft repeated story
