I have no desire to spit on the man’s corpse. Where he ended up is between him and God.

He's not spitting on the man's corpse but just pointing out the hypocrisy of those who think that everyone they like will be "resting in peace" regardless of the life they led.

Doug Giles is just pointing out that there are two roads to eternity, the wide one that leads to destruction and the narrow one that leads to life.

The odds are that Hoffman, dying with a needle full of heroin sticking out of his arm, wasn't on the narrow road and isn't eating ice cream with Jesus.

Exactly my thought. We are taught that our behavior is what sends us to one place or the other, but that choice is ultimately out of everyone's hands. It is up to God, and he doesn't share his choices with me.

Amen! We have no clue what Hoffman was thinking in his last seconds on earth. He might just have been lucid enough to ask for forgiveness.
