If you are a priest or a preacher, there is one thing you should be dang sure of. There is a God and there is an eternity. If you aren't sure about that, you are in the wrong profession. 

That's the sad reality that man faced.

Of course, none of us knows EXACTLY what happens. That is not what this man was looking for. What he needed to hear was when he went to sleep forever here on Earth, he would wake up to the face of God.

What she really wants to be is a glorified therapist. That's not what this man needed.

Refusing to help assuage someone's terror at the end of their life is just nasty work.

It's so very cruel.

If you see clergy 'comforting' someone like this, change churches, immediately. 

She says her 'presence' is the comfort she can offer. No thanks.

Apparently not.

Amen.
