Whither the Soul.

Lately I  was honoured to help dig the grave of a neighbour in a plot that has been used for the burial of  previous family members.
In the digging we encountered bones and other such body parts from previously interred family members.
But no soul.
We as Catholics believe that death is only a new beginning to an eternity with our Saviour.And there must be an alternative of hell to accommodate the perpetrators of evil.
Ten years ago I  had a severe stroke and hovered between life and death for a long while.
I  was sure I  was dying and commenced to say an Act of perfect Contrition to God.Before I  had finished a voice from Heaven said to me that it was not my time yet.
Nor was it and that voice sustains me until the present day .
I have long since confessed my sins ,totally realize that I  am far from perfect and try to live a goodish life.
Brendan Grace had few material goods in his childhood ,left school at 14 years of age and used his God given talents to entertain and was totally beloved by all and sundry.
I saw him in action once and he was brilliant.
I  could never imagine him killing nor advocating the killing of another human being,born nor preborn.
Around the time of his death another well known man also died.
This guy had every advantage that Grace had not.He was born into a wealthy family ,was educated unto the ninth degree , was a practising barrister of the Fianna Fail gene pool and a famous social commentator.
He was an enthusiastic advocate for the mass murder of the living unborn human babies.
He and other well known politicians,academics and advocates for the murder of the unborn succeeded in convincing the electorate to legalize the murder of the unborn.
My Catholic Church is resolutely against abortion,yet the same Catholic Church saw fit to allow the funeral of this man to take place within its sacred confines.
The question I  have to ask is this.
Why did the Catholic Church allow the Sacrament to be performed  in respect of a man whose activities had helped notch up the murder of countless preborn children .
With certainty I  can say that when I  die and face my Maker that if I am sent to the same place that this guy and the other practitioners and facilitators of abortion are present and if it is Heaven I  will opt for Hell.

  1. Judge me, oh God, and distinguish me from a nation that is not holy, delivery me from the unjust and deceitful man.
