As I said, I agree with you and I am fairly certain you are right. I was simply speculating that the death of his sister (which occurred after he wrote his letter to the Pope) COULD have had a positive effect on him.

I think there are a lot of other sinners whose salvation is in question that we could be worrying about other than spending so much time speculating about whether or not Ted Kennedy secretly repented before God called him to judgment.

To be honest, just as he didn't care about the fate of the unborn, I don't care about his. He's in God's hands now and no amount of speculating about whether he had some deathbed confession that saved his soul is going to change anything.
