    Yet another highly disturbed, highly addicted celebrity singer.

    Amen.   It's so sad.  Amy was a huge talent.  The girl had so many problems it's a shame that those around her didn't see to it that she received the help she needed.
    My conscience compels me to make this disclaimer lest God judges me partly culpable for the errors and heresy promoted on this forum... For the record I support neither Sedevacantism or the SSPX.  I do not define myself as either a traditionalist or Novus

  • Was she Catholic? ...or even Protestant?

    Or is this an attempt to rile up the BOD discussion?  :smirk:

  • I think it is an attempt at people saying they are sorry someone died.

  • I was hinting that reflection on her death should center around her life and whether or not it was one well-lived. Any death should be a chance for us to reflect on our own mortality and I'm certainly not thinking today that I wished I had a better voice. Moreso, I'm thankful that God saw fit to save me from a life of celebrity.

    While it's always good to acknowledge that we never know whose life has merited heaven and whose has not, it's also good to recognize that hers likely did not.

    And so, rather than say RIP which is common for deaths among the faithful, it is perhaps better to say, "May God have mercy on her soul."

    She reportedly became a Catholic in 2008, possibly as an act of solidarity with her then-husband, who was in jail.  I don't know whether she stuck with it.  

    In any event, her death was predictable but nevertheless very sad.  Requiescat in pace.
