| Ophis | Yes
| As long as sainthood can be removed if the living person decides to alter his/her course in a direction that would be judged to be incompatible with the CoV virtues. |
| Casey | No
| I'd rather the person no longer be alive in order that he/she will not do something that the CoV may perceive as not affording them the honor of being illuminated. |
| rhinoceros | No
| We are only humans and therefore susceptible to fads, especially in the short term. |
| David Lucifer | No
| Too many problems with illuminating living people. Let's come up with a differerent honour. |

| It seems fitting that a progressive, modern religion should emphasize the future over the past. Let's make eligible hypothetical people who aren't born yet, like the first artificial intelligence. |
| Alex Future Bokov | Yes
| Don't let it ever be said I lack ambition. |
| DJ dAndroid | No
| Because it should be an "un-removeable" honor, and what if they eventually prove unworthy? 15 years ago I never thought Skinny_Puppy would let me down but... :p |

| If for no other reason but that a living person still has the ability to embarrass. Safely dead saints are much more predictable. |

| Too inconvenient to continuously update the bio I think. |
