When Ted Kennedy died and went to heaven (Part 2). |
|
Edited on Sat Jan-02-10 05:59 PM by denem
He did not linger long in the mansions of glory.
Walking over the hills towards the settlements, he was greeted by the sick, the forgotten, the impoverished, and all in life who were subjects of hatred, discrimination and contempt.
For once he did not have to give a speech about injustice, tragedy and war. He said, "Blessed are the poor, theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven".
RFK put a arm around his shoulder."Blessed are those who mourn" he said, "They will be comforted".

Too truthful and reality based.
It holds up a mirror to us all.
Thank you!

9. Forgiveness for a man battling alcohol, haunted by the past? |
|
A sinner forgiven? I can imagine that.

11. i sure teddy felt bad. that is what the poster above is saying. if you feel bad, and are "haunted." |
|
we should "forgive."
it doesn't matter if you kill a human. a woman, a person. leave another to drown and die. just pay off the family and carry on.
it only matters that you feel bad.
see?
lighten up. i'm sure that mjk's face was just another of those alluded too by the first joke about teddy entering heaven here today...
