You really ought to do your homework. One would think that anyone who lies so often would be better at it by now. FR has too much of the Pajama media in it to get away with your Dan Rather like information. I happen to have known the Fr. Bob Curtis who was present at the Duke's baptism.
Batptism!?! Is that what you're now calling last rites given to a comatose man?
My RC father-in-law was a personal friend of Wayne's. He tried to get him to go to church with him for years.
Wayne never went. He was a Presbyterian.
So priests can say whatever they want us to believe, after the fact. My personal experience tells me the truth.
As I said, I don't doubt last rites were given to Wayne at his children's request. I figure my father-in-law sneaked our children in to his priest to get baptized when we weren't looking. Who cares? God knows the truth. If it made my fil happy and comforted, why not?
Wayne suffered for years from lung cancer. It is an agonizingly painful death. Having witnessed that kind of death, I know full-well the patient is usually not conscience at the end.
Wayne's "deathbed conversion" is a myth.
But its vain repetition only proves the desperation of RCs who intend to claim everything for themselves, even the soul of one who was already saved by Christ.
What was Fr. Bob Curtis doing at the baptism of a Protestant?
