No
Catholic Funeral
Roman Catholic bishop Robert Brom has denied funeral rites to
John McCusker, 31. The decree applies to all 98 Catholic churches
in San Diego or Imperial counties. Brom’s big sin? He owned
a bar and a dance club popular with gays. That clashes with
the church’s moral teachings. However, the Bishop’s decision
was not related to McCusker’s sexual orientation, according
to Chancellor Rodrigo Valdivia. Brom’s business was “adult entertainment,”
said Valdivia, “which is inconsistent with Catholic teaching.”
John McCusker died of congestive heart failure at a ski resort,
according to his family.
