    How else could he lead them away? He has to address them first.
    Many years ago there was a certain priest who was called upon to do the local pauper's funerals. He did them for Catholics and he did them for non Catholics who had died also. But the funeral he gave them was a Catholic funeral. He didn't water anything down.

  • Eh, I think he's questioning the bishop, but I'm willing to bet that he will never come out and condemn Bergoglio.
    I am not questioning the bishop. I think everyone should hear what the Catholic Church teaches.

    Sorry, I thought you were coming out of your trance.

    Never has the Church permitted Catholic funerals for non-Catholics.

    Heh.  I guess I was wrong.  He wasn't even questioning the bishop ::).

    So, poche, if the bishop wasn't leading them to the Catholic Faith (and he wasn't), aren't you questioning him (ie. his actions)?

    I am saying that it is the bishop's job to lead all of the people (Catholics and non Catholics) to the Catholic Faith. His job is to lead them where he finds them.

    Why would a Catholic need to be led to the Catholic Faith if he, by definition, already professes the Catholic Faith?

    Was he leading the non-Catholics to the Catholic Faith here? If you don't think so, then guess what?  You were questioning the bishop.  It's okay poche.  This is a good thing.  Don't fight it.  Welcome to the real world.  Granted, you have much more to go, but at least you're making the step in the right direction.

    It is not just Catholics that need to be led to the Catholic Faith. Everybody needs to be led to the Catholic Faith.

    Do you know what the word “led”, the past participle of the word lead, means?

    Either way, it is the job of the bishop to lead everybody to the Catholic Faith.

    There is only one Catholic Faith. And I will remind you that St Alphonsus Ligouri said that those who do not believe in the existence of Hell are those mot in danger of going there.
