Can you actually sue for this? Okay. So the priest decided, by whatever authority was vested in him, that the dead guy at the funeral was going straight to Hell.
So the family is suing.
How exactly does that work? I mean, inside the heirarchy of churches, isn't the priest allowed to make a judgment of that variety? Or is everyone entitled to a hopeful verdict as to the final disposition of their soul? That seems like a bit of a lie, considering the state of the general population's morals relative to Roman Catholic doctrine, or any Christian denomination that is tightly rule-bound.
However, if the funeral is actually about the family, as opposed to the dearly departed, then I imagine this pronouncement could definitely be very disturbing.
Being neither family nor dead, I just find it funny. I wonder who will win.

Masturbation is healthy! Wow. Gay marriage in Canada, maybe in Massachusetts. Homos getting it legally in Texas and other dens of Ashcroftian moral stultification. What could increase the wave of bliss sweeping the land?
Masturbation fights prostate cancer!
That's why I do it. And the pot is for my glaucoma, too.
