David's Daily Diversions

The Better Death

He can finally marry the woman he loves. He's killed his wife.

Michael "Spawn of Satan" Schiavo wouldn't even let her parents be with her when she died.

For the ever-memorable handmaiden of God, Terry, may she find a place of light, a place of refreshment, a place of repose, whence pain, sorrow and sighing have fled away. Perhaps she will find a place under the altar in heaven where she can cry out, "How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?"

Cremation to hide the crimes committed against her will not prevent her from having a new and incorruptable body at the Resurrection. She may have been hastened to the First Death, but murderers will not avoid the Second.
