"We Catholics pray for the dead. I will continue to pray for Terri, a Catholic who graduated from the Catholic Schools as did I. In fact, she graduated from the same CAtholic School diocese from which I graduated."
Obviously I am not a Catholic and don't want a mud slinging contest on this thread, however I alert you to what the Bible states:
1Cor.5:3
[3] For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,
2Cor.5:8
[8] We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
I have confidence in what the approved books of the Bible state than those that contradict it.
Terri was a Catholic who believed in praying for the dead as I and most Catholics do. Thus, in her honor, I will continue to pray in the Catholic tradition for BOTH Terri and her family as our faith teaches and permits us to do.
