Batptism!?! Is that what you're now calling last rites given to a comatose man?
My RC father-in-law was a personal friend of Wayne's. He tried to get him to go to church with him for years.
Wayne never went. He was a Presbyterian.
So priests can say whatever they want us to believe, after the fact. My personal experience tells me the truth.
As I said, I don't doubt last rites were given to Wayne at his children's request. I figure my father-in-law sneaked our children in to his priest to get baptized when we weren't looking. Who cares? God knows the truth. If it made my fil happy and comforted, why not?
Wayne suffered for years from lung cancer. It is an agonizingly painful death. Having witnessed that kind of death, I know full-well the patient is usually not conscience at the end.
Wayne's "deathbed conversion" is a myth.
But its vain repetition only proves the desperation of RCs who intend to claim everything for themselves, even the soul of one who was already saved by Christ.

Wayne was awake and alert when he made his conversion. Aside from direct "eye-witness corroboration" from someone I know, there are the reports from his family, including ex-wives, close friends (John Ford) and multiple news paper accounts (many "litter the internet"), and there are the records at St. Paul's in LA and the UCLA medical center.
Contrast that with conjecture and hearsay from a known liar and the conclusion is easy.

Does it surprise you? Frankly, I would have been surprised it it were anything other than another intentional attempt to deceive.
No doubt. And your collie was the original Lassie, and your sister discovered the last lost tribe on Papua New Guinea, and your brother was in charge of the Human Genome Project, and your kids are all high ranking officials in the State Department.
Doc, does 8 million plus results constitute "littering the internet"?
John 8: 31 14 15 Jesus then said to those Jews who believed in him, "If you remain in my word, you will truly be my disciples, 32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
Let us become free of the fetters of mendacity, shall we? Google is indeed our friend when dealing with the prevaricators.
Don't forget that due to her RC father-in-law's contacts she was offered the Maureen O'Hara role in The Quiet Man since she was going to be in Europe anyway, but turned it down when she learned that she would have to play an RC. Besides, filming would have interfered with the reunion of her commando unit which was parachuted behind Nazi lines to thwart the Pope Pius XII's plan to exterminate another 860,000 Jews.
I had forgotten that. I did find out, though, that her cat is a part time superhero and her hamster is the original role model for the coroner on CSI (complete with the two canes). And that her house is the actual meeting place for the Bilderburgers (the public showing is merely a sham for the paparazzi).
I’m so tired of this game of “GOTCHA!” that they constantly play.
When Catholics post links, articles, etc explaining Catholic teachings, they are met with either a deafening silence or a clumsy attempt to pick apart an isolated word or phrase and twist its meaning completely, or infer conclusions that are not even there. Most of the time they are met with scorn and ridicule and the hurling of deeply uncharitable ephithets unworthy of a Christian.
There has not been one single post addressing the numerous and powerful points made in the Patrick Madrid article on 1 Cor 4:6, in which he demolishes the Protestant tenet of sola scriptura. The only reply was a muddled attempt to take issue with his use of two prepositions in one sentence of the article.
I erred. They were conjunctions, not prepositions.
In what context?
Good Lord! Here it is 3:30 on Saturday afternoon and you guys are STILL talking about this??? Why not move on to a topic that is even slightly associated with this OP. PLEASE???
Excellent points, as usual.
Thx.
But its vain repetition only proves the desperation of RCs who intend to claim everything for themselves, . . .
NAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! How Dare you!
What a brazenly crazy thing to say! . . .
. . . . EXCEPT FOR THE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DEMONSTRATIONS, PROOF PAGES POSTED RELENTLESSLY BY THEM HEREON—illustrating that your assertion is likely a weak conservative one compared to the true facts! LOL.
NOW NOW, DEAR HEART.
I think you know that requests to be reasonable and relevant
are
in violation of the Catechism and certainly with the Vatican customs, rituals and most of the STATIONS OF THE WHITE HANKY.
So what makes the claim ludicrous
I dont get it either. When I was catholic I attended maybe a dozen or so High Masses. Not sure why that is so incredible to believe. Although, now that i said it, I will probably be hounded to prove it. lol
I just think its part an parcel of kill the messenger tactics.
I guess in any context. I mean when is Jesus NOT the Son of Mary?
(I feel like a drug pusher. Aw, c’mon, how could ONE little Ave hurt? Try it ...)
