The Church intercedes for the soul and leaves final judgment to God.

I would enjoy watching another Yasser Arafat style funeral...

Fly the body in, shoot up the helicopter blades, fire into the air while dragging the body through the streets, watching people keel over wounded from the bullets raining back down and conclude by throwing the body into a hole in the street and covering it up as quickly as possible.

It is my understanding that you can have a Catholic burial as long as you haven’t been formally excommunicated by the Church and didn’t have the excommunication revoked. As in Post #2, the priest performs a Mass of Catholic burial because no one knows what reparations the deceased made before dying except God or his/her confessor.

Of course if a person is a pro-abortion "Catholic",
they are given a Catholic burial anyway.

“Cases of those who choose cremation for reasons contrary to the faith “

Wonder what that is. The Catholic Church allows cremations now, so how does this fit in?

If New Jersey mobsters get Catholic funerals, I'm sure Teddy is right there in the mix. Besides, all the “catholics” in Mass vote for Bwarney Fwank and Kerry every time their tickets need punched. They overwhelmingly voted for Obama even knowing the only bill he ever got passed was to kill babies after their birth if mommy didn't want them.

The world we live in now allows Pelosi to challenge the pope that abortion isn't settled theology. I'm still wondering why she wasn't put on the rack to explain catholic dogma to her.

Who can have a Catholic funeral? = Answer:

History has proven that in RC it doesn't matter how corrupt or evil you are, or what you have done just so long as you or your relatives have the money to pay up and grease the skids and palms of those in power within the RC church. This also holds true for marriage annulments; just ask Teddy, or Al Capone... oh you can't, they are is still dead.

This also holds true for taking communion, you can be a powerful RC politician and kill (Teddy boy) or support the murder of unborn MILLIONS for years and "the church" will perpetually give you a pass and let you partake... just so long as they continue to get their cut and their influence. Just ask Kerry, Dean, Pelosi, etc...
