>>Of course, the multi-million-dollar Catholic cemetery business would go bust if the Church taught otherwise.<<

Peace on Earth, good will to men.

My dad died in 1982. He was cremated and buried in a Catholic cemetary. 300.00 for the plot, 275.00 for the cremation and 50.00 to bury him.

My mom died in 1989. She was cremated and buried in the SAME PLOT (there is room for 4 more cremanes) The price went up to 500.00 for the cremation and still 50.00 to bury her.

So while you think it’s “all about money in the Catholic Church” I can count on myself, my husband and each of my children going into that plot for a big ole 200.00.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to find out some facts before posting insults.

Bigotry and facts are never friends. Bigotry never says "I am sorry", never says "I was wrong". Bigotry simply exists, like Original Sin.
