This isn’t about corruption but whether a person needs to confess publicly for forgiveness before he dies.

No one owes another person a confession.

Your posts are obviously correct regarding confession.

However, the Notre Dame debacle and now this mockery of a Catholic Funeral Mass chips away at the credibility of some in the Church’s hierarchy.

This Mass should have been private and not turned into a farce, as it was. From the hyperbolic praise of Kennedy and listing of “achievements” to the omission of his transgressions and contempt for the Church on the issues of Life and the innocent.

This act by our hierarchy only weakens the church and legitimizes the Pro Abortion Catholic lie. As in life, Kennedy led his minions astray in death. The Church followed along like lemmings to the Kennedy tune.

If the priests found talking about the truth uncomfortable, then the private funeral Mass option should have been used.

May God have mercy on this man’s soul and all of us.
