Only Catholics canonize a saint. Although Oprah could pass for one, I would like to tell you that whatever you are thinking that could be her sins, I believe they are outperformed if not out numbered by the good intentions and the good works she had done to many in and outside USA.
God's command to people is mercy and He is not so much in offerings of burnt animals or foods on His altar. Oprah had done more than that. She lifted up the empowerment of women both whites and colored. She raised the standards of the underprivileged. If she cannot be saint by Catholic standards, she can be a hero by the world's standards.

Because of Adams fall into sin we are all sinners. We are not sinners because we sin, but we sin because we are sinners. Even Oprah.

She's a sinner because everyone sins, but she is an extraordinary human and a good person.

Both. Like everyone else. Just richer than most, actually worked for it, and really does share a lot of it.

I think she truly likes to help people in need which is very admirable but I think her on screen ways are a little overdone sometimes for my liking.

She is just human. She does a lot of good things but I'm sure she has sinned to.

I truly think she has done a lot wonderful things. I think she is a good person. She has her issues, as does everyone. But overall I think she's great.
