"Mannion answers: "If we love someone and hope for their [sic] salvation, God sees their merits and virtues far more deeply and perceptively than we do…. It is a holy and noble thought that no one ever goes to hell who has been truly loved by another human being in this life."

A little of this, a little of that. A little hand holding, song singing, kumbaya, social work... all that matters is that we "love". No matter how that word is defined, or whether we love Christ enough to obey His will.

I can understand wanting to comfort a grieving mother. I can't understand compromising Christ. Why not speak the truth? That would comfort the mom and please Christ.
