I truly regret the death of the great man. I honestly do. But, I ask you, how can the TV News programmes keep on giving such an effusion of praise - it ran across three full days!
He had feet of clay. He was distinctly human with no hint of the divine. He probably won't even be 'made into a saint' by the Pope.
Was he redeemed by the blood of Jesus? - That is the only question that actually matters. I do pray that it was so.
