Well, of course, don’t you know how special he is - always the outlier.

I think the reason Obama refused to attend is because it would cause him to be in a Catholic Church in the presence of the Holy Eucharist and forced to view the Crucifix.
Interesting! I know Irish Catholic funerals are incredible, when the deceased was a strong believer on earth. I'm guessing Italian Catholic funerals are the same. Obama just wouldn't fit in.

The Cathedral would probably burst into flames if he did attend.
To: TruthWillWin
No, that is done in every Catholic Mass.
In the General Instruction of the Roman Missal incense may be used during the entrance procession; at the beginning of Mass, to incense the altar; at the procession and proclamation of the Gospel; at the offertory, to incense the offerings, altar, priest and people; and at the elevation of the Sacred Host and chalice of Precious Blood after the consecration. The priest may also incense the Crucifix and the Paschal Candle. During funeral Masses, the priest at the final commendation may incense the coffin, both as a sign of honor to the body of the deceased which became the temple of the Holy Spirit at Baptism and as a sign of the faithful's prayers for the deceased rising to God.

Obama’s absence is a good thing. It makes him look petty. The funeral and the church are not desecrated by his presence. And the cleanup for the Sunday Masses can be done by a custodian — no exorcist required.

Who cares. At least he is not at the funeral.
the polyphonic chanting of the Agnus Dei by the schola was indeed heavenly...
To: Rusty0604
I could not blame them, if they did.

What’s with all the smoke? Bugs in the room?
not in the room...perhaps in your brain...
To: twister881
Father Scalia was right on focusing on Jesus and eternal life, while he did touch upon his late father, it was keeping the focus on Jesus.

a most beautiful rendering of Panis Angelicus...
To: Kaslin
The Mass is on Fox News. Scalia's son, who is a priest, is presiding over it.
Very beautiful.
Thought I heard Fox say Ted Cruz was there too.
Prayers for the repose of Antonin Scalia's soul. What a great loss for our country. Prayers for his family for comfort through their grief.

Beautiful Mass. Father Scalia gave a fantastic homily. Wonderful music.
