Same in the Roman Church - but not every day is a
_holy_ day.

Yeah. You get a buildup of saints after a while -
and people forget what they did or why they're
saints. Or how on Earth or Heaven _anyone_ could
consider them saintly! ;)
If the Telerani had a calendar of saints, it
would certainly be clogged with multiple saints
on every day. Well, of course, the Christian
Telerani _do_ have such a calendar, and it _is_
clogged with multiple saints! :)
