Fair play, the priest didn’t pull any punches in his sermon, you’d wonder how many were listening though…
Not very often I’d agree with a priest, but christ, he didn’t hold back did he.
A funeral shouldn’t look like a celebration.
Unless they are self-aware and realize that one less waste-of-space scumbag on the planet is a reason to celebrate?
Scene a few videos of it earlier. Pure knackery
I mean, he’s right and all, but he’s also chosen to conduct a funeral celebration for a scumbag gangster brought to the altar in a golden coffin.
Ah but sometimes a gentle approach is better: remember how this gangster USED to love a good laugh?
Uhmm not to be bad to the priest but according to the religion he serves,
> The person is in a box. Is dead. Won’t live a new life.
Except in heaven with god.
> Won’t grow old.
Because of eternal life with god
> He won’t rear a family.
He is now apart of gods family.
> No. Death is death
I thought death was eternal life
> There is nothing ever glamorous or blingy about death.
Except you get to join god in heaven with all that gold and riches that the churches love to hoard for the god
Think this priest should think about giving up the collar.
Those people haven’t the ability to absorb that point. They’re literally too ignorant to grasp it.
A priest from my area in Donegal at a mass condemned a man on the altar for committing suicide,the family were extremely angry, nothing was said during the mass to the priest but he fecking knew afterwards in his chambers how upset they were at the prick,not advocating for criminals here at all,cos those videos of a cortege of cars and bikes racing through the the streets at funerals for these guys does not help anyone
Wit de angles now.
But all the cool kids are doing it these days. I don’t want to hear that death is just a phase.
You mean not the eternal rest and the perpetual light and all that Father?
The same mates who are crying crocodile tears and pouring one out for him today sold him out for a few hundred quid to the other rival gang
So he’s not gone to heaven no?????
You can forget about Icey Tea and Scoopy Scoopy Dog Dog.
“The weak must make way for the strong. Evolution marches on. The scythe is remorseless. I hope the scythe’s remorseless swing can bring some comfort to you all.”
Jesus, that priest didn’t hold back. People have their hang ups about religion, all justified. But it never hurts to have a community leader with a bit of sense and I afraid to speak it. Nice to see it.
Love the juxtaposition in the article how it finishes off all this with basically “then his friends did wheelies and burnouts yup yup”
I cant blame a man for his righteous indignation for the death of a relatively young man.
This dark, violent world would break the hardiest of religious men
