Risk: Critical · Human theologianSainthood (Called to be Holy)
CRITICAL: every believer is called ‘santo’ in Romans 1:7; in mainstream Catholic popular piety ‘los santos’ overwhelmingly denotes canonized figures venerated and petitioned for intercession. This is one of the two highest syncretism risks in the whole glossary (with intercession) and requires an explicit teaching note in every occurrence.
