The sickening double standard on display. If we are going to be sad over Kobe's death let it be for his lost chances to truly repent and get born again.

Perhaps, but he attended Mass with his family that same morning, so perhaps, just perhaps he will be among those among the dead who rise firt to be caught up into the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, sooner rather than later. One can hope so, for even attending mass indicates he was seeking God ... and God is The rewarder of those who diligently seek him. Let God sort him out.

rhetorical question..would you say the same about Weinstein if he goes to Church..or Cosby getting religion in jail?

Would no one be allowed to talk about their terrible behavior??? Rhetorical, again.

Sure, but how do you know? What does “truly repent and get born again” mean?

“Born again”? How do you know he wasn’t born again and then judge him and his faith prior to his death one way or the other?

But yes, I hope that we all “truly repent and get born again” all the time, as often and as many times as it takes, 24/7.

The world is a harsh mistress and a harsher landlord.

Since God created his soul--yes, let God sort him out.
By now Kobe HAS met his Maker...for good or for bad.
