Read post # 90.

By the way what does repenting mean anyway? He collapsed in January, plenty of time to make right what he did wrong. Part of confessing means dealing with a contrite heart and turning away from your sins, not being proud of them.

Sin and publicly piss all over your Church until you grab the Priest, he will take care of it, right? James 5:16 comes to mind but that would entail integrity, something our leaders lack.

Like I said before, Kennedy's soul is where He deemed it to be. We go by Scripture, tradition, logic, and actions.

Being corrupt to the bitter end, then grabbing the Priest hoping to get a “free ride” without repenting, this is Catholic teaching?

Makes for a very weak Church if you can knowingly sin perpetually and not bother actually repenting, just verbalizing on your deathbed while leaving Obama, the pro-abort Pres. to carry on your legacy (What has been reported). Again, what is repentence?

Tell me, how were Ted's actions in the last days?

By the way, your post Vatican II Church (As well as other Churches) is full of corruption. It makes exceptions (Annulments for bounty), covers up molestation, accepts sinners that flaunt their sins with no desire to repent, (Cough, pro-abortion politicians, cough, cough) and lazily says, “you can't partake in the Eucharist” even though they go Priest shopping (Pelosi and the like).

Where is the tradition of buying your annulment, supporting murder, corruption, theft and still being in the good graces of the Church by rattling off your sins in which you have no desire to repent from, spring forth at (While Ted was busy being the law maker)? If that is Catholic teaching consider me clueless since that Church is at war with Christ, the Church Fathers, and Biblical authority/tradition.

In order to maintain some semblance of authority, the Church should have kicked Kennedy out a long time ago (PUBLICLY) as any other Church under the authority of Christ should do . If he truly wanted to repent his actions would have made it so. I guess Kennedy got his cake and ate it too from his diocese. What a joke, accountability from “Spiritual” LEADERS, extinct I guess, especially if you have a Priest to serve as back-up.

If you get to meet Christ, you can ask Him.

God's ability to forgive sin exceeds yours infinitely.

In the poisonous little mind of a Catholic-hating bigot.

The man owes you squat. I have been talking about a deathbed confession. If you DO NOT believe in them, you need to go back to Catechism.
You have no clue about God’s mind, whether or not Kennedy was truly contrite or what he said to his confessor.

The rest is just your opinion and nothing else.

Our Lord may have a different opinion. Take it up with him.
