I hope she told him that only empty religions have empty crosses.

No.

Twenty-two years later she died and I have no confidence that she is in heaven. I know there's no purgatory and I know there's no use in me - or you - praying for her salvation.

That may sound cold to you. But it's the truth.

I loved her very much but she died and her funeral was depressing.

Let's see how that would work when assumptions as for base value of integer, in above formula, were to be extended to include other closely related consideration;

Solve for the simple, basic equation.

Perhaps think of it as the math question of the day.

All religion is empty.

Religion gets us nowhere with God.

If anyone is following a religion, they are chasing after the wind.

If anyone is following Christ, they are saved.

An empty cross is an indicator of the victory over death that Jesus made.

It's too bad the Catholic church leaves Him there in perpetuity. All it says is that the church doesn't think Jesus finished what He said he did. My Jesus is the resurrected, conquering King, not the conquered victim forever bound to that cross, impotent on it.
