The earliest Christian saints were martyrs ("witnesses"), who witnessed to their faith by being killed. That was mostly thanks to the Roman Empire, though the earliest martyrdoms of all?apart from Jesus himself were the?responsibility of Jews: that had unfortunate results, because the Feast of Stephen ??? the first martyr after Jesus ??? became a catalyst for anti-semitic violence in some parts of western Christendom. Medieval folk, short of?new deaths at the hands of non-Christians, extended the principle; they tended to confer sainthood on?anyone who died suddenly and therefore before their time, which led?to a number of hapless murdered young princes and monarchs being awarded a cult (surprising that the Tudors didn't promote the princes in?the Tower this way; perhaps the Reformation came along too soon). The official churches divided interestingly over the sudden-death principle: the western church deplored it, and you can understand why after reading a letter from a 12th-century Pope telling Scandinavians to stop venerating a local worthy who had died while he was drunk. But Orthodoxy was much more tolerant of the idea that holiness was demonstrated by dying for no very good reason, and the Orthodox also developed an engaging line in sanctity for blokes who behaved in a ridiculous or obscene fashion for the greater glory of God: holy fools.
