Proof that Cyril of Alexandria is a Saint in the Roman Catholic Church?
score:5
Accepted answer
I think you got your information wrong, since although the Catholic church didn't commemorate Saint Cyril until 1882 (on Feb 9, later moved to June 27), Cyril was already listed as Saint in the 1583 Roman Martyrology (see Wikipedia article List of Catholic Saints) and in the famous 4 volume compendium Butler's Lives of The Saints (first published 1756-1759, Cyril's entry here).
While I cannot yet find more definite year of Cyril's recognition as saint, it is very probable that he was canonized before the animosity between East and West began.
