How about an Open Thread to nominate worthy people to a non-religious alternative to Sainthood?
I operate something along these lines: it's called "inhabiting NuitdeYoung's jewellery". I tend to wear pictures of my favourite historical characters (and sometimes literary ones) in brooches and lockets. They're there because either they inspire me or because I want to look after them. Most are decent eye-candy, too. Most are just photocopied pictures that I've put in frame-brooches or lockets myself, but one or 2 people are represented by 'official' badges or brooches that I've bought. And in one case, I put a couple of Roman coins in lockets to show one of my guys at 2 stages in his career: as Caesar in the West, and as Empero
