My mom passed away on June 24th of this year from cancer. I prayed the Divine Mercy Chaplet almost everyday for her to go in peace once she became terminal at the end of May. None of us were in the room with her when she died due to restrictions on visiting hours at the hospice from COVID. When they called me to tell me she was gone, they said she went peacefully in her sleep. The last thing I got to do with her while she was alive was pray the Chaplet and then prayed the Rosary immediately after. My prayers were answered. She received the sacraments before death and we've been having odd things happening in the house since her passing. Pictures knocking off walls, lights and tv go on by themselves, footsteps...I think she is in purgatory. Anyone reading this, please pray for my mom's soul. Her name is Maryann Ragan. ❤
Mary R. Dear Mary. Please do consider "30 Gregorian Masses for the Dead" in your Moms name for relief of your Mothers soul from Purgatory to Heaven, as soon as you can. If at all possible I would go for the Traditional Latin Masses if you can find a priest who is truly Catholic to do so. Please look in to the origin and history of this if you have any doubts. This is the method that the Church has used for centuries in situations like this. May God bless your Mothers soul and your Family.
I've just started praying it again and I pray it everyday ×10, I really like the idea of more holy souls going to heaven and praying for the conversions of more people on earth 👍 thank you Jesus for giving us this wonderful prayer through St Gertrude 🙏
Catholic talk show- I need to reach out to you and want to tell my story. I was born into a Hindu family in India and converted into a Christian (Catholic) with no one pushing me into it. It’s by God’s pure pathway and miracles I chose to become one. Where can I reach out to testify and share my story? Thank you.
Thank you for this awesome episode. I am blessed to believe that both of my parents passed away in great friendship with God, and both died (16 years apart) surrounded by family, and in peace. They were foster parents to hundreds of handicapped children in addition to their own kids, and raised us all in the faith. I believe that St. Joseph , the foster father of Jesus, as well as the Blessed Mother, were there to escort them Home. God bless all of you.
Great. I really enjoyed this one. Thank you very much for presenting this topic. Since I found back to the faith I don't feel funerals anymore as such depressing events but as a spiritual experience. The christian hope of resurrection is an amazing feeling, - if you can feel it. I just think most people can't. My greetings to all of you from Cologne, Germany. I only wish my family could speak english well enough to listen to you.

I found this conversation so interesting. I am Indian and as far back as I can remember, we always went to the cemetery on all souls day and often attended mass held in the cemetery. Months mind mass and 1st, 2nd, 3rd anniversary masses are still offered, sometimes 7th day mass
I was a 13 year old girl when my mama passed, me my father and my siblings went to church every Sunday then after mass we go directly to the cemetery that's the whole year wearing our mourning clothes, that's 44 years ago, didn't realize that someone noticed what we did because I was just told about it, even remembered my mourning dress, and even told me that I'm being remembered as a girl who is always kneeling. I always offer masses for my dearly departed on All Souls Day and on their death anniversaries, and I always pray for them on my daily prayers 🙏
Yup. I'm from South India too. Masses for you family members after their departure is an essential part of the Catholic/Christian culture here. Month's mind mass is followed by a feast/dinner in honour of the departed too ryt?
Hey guys. I enjoy listening to yall on Spotify while at work. It keeps me at peace during a hectic day...anyway I was just wondering why new episodes haven't been added, the last episode available is the one on the Rosary.
My wife being away with my son 1st year at Uni in UK and ironing away at home listening to your Talk Show on Death and preparing for Death . I commend you for how clear and concise you went through all the different stages of preparation, Burial , masses etc I found it very informative and inspiring . I am 63 quite fit with a lively wife and 5 beautiful children we have brought up and continue to bring up in the Catholic Faith . Naturally the older I get the more I ponder on the thief that will come at night !!! Thank you very much GB a keep up the g work
My Mother sat me down and said if I find her gone. She said. I hope you have a smile for me, because I will be where I have prayed to be. I am, with the ones we dearly miss. Once agaian, He fulfilled my wish. We had cards made up with this. She was so ready, but Alzhiemers took over. She died a natural at home. God Bless each one of you.
In the Philippines( different rituals probably every island), we have a 9 day novena prayer for the departed soul. Another prayer novena after 40 days (date of death) and last prayer novena after 1st year of death...And , every Nov. 2 which is our all souls day, we honor and pray for the dead as well!
I loved this episode. I wish you could send it to all younger Catholics including mine ! They are very active but don’t understand burial rituals. Love your show ! ❤️❤️❤️Patron Member 😄🙏❤️
Thanks so much for this! So many people need to know about this, I’m a senior and many of my friends and family have gone ahead however, I find great comfort in the prayers and service for the death. God Bless you all. Where do we find that prayer copy of Padre Pio? I pray for the wonderful work you are doing! 🇨🇦🇨🇦☮️☮️❤️✝️
My mom was cremated then taken to Costa Rica she had a huge service then buried with her family. I had a priest come to the house and pray over her. Then each year one church service the date of her death I pray and light a candle 🕯 thanks
It took me all these years to come forward willingly to share my conversion story. Because I feel it’s the right time, as I see the world is getting all negative, seeing people turning away from God and persecuting Christians on many levels, I feel a bit of my positive story might make a tiny difference, that will make me happy. I want to help in anyway I can. Please help me out and hear my story. Thank you.
In Ireland we still have the " Months mind Mass ", In general Catholics still wake their dead at home on the 3rd day the Requim Mass is said and the corpse is either buried or cremated. Protestants tend to use funeral homes as the norm.It is very cathartic having your loved one there for 3 days. The corpse is never left alone, with a minimum of 3 people there until they go to Church.
Its difficult now to keep corpse at home due to living in small apartments. Catholics do now use funeral home due to bigger space for many people to come pray together with family.
Our Priest says the St Pio Prayer before the current end of Mass when we now take the Eucharist. I also ln know of a man who went to our local convent in the last two years he had terminal cancer. He received the sacrement of the sick and was cleared of cancer
Can we get a series of pictures or supplementary video of Father's Vestments? I'm a third year theologian studying at a Catholic Seminary in Canada and am curious.

I have a request if I may, could you do a show on Saint Christina -The Astonishing. I think it’d be a great idea to talk about how she’s considered a “spooky saint” but clear that up Bc she has an absolutely amazing story that I believe deserves to be told. Thanks 😊
Thank you for all this info. I am 81 and most of my preparations have been around money. I am being cremated. To tell you the truth I am excited about going to see my God.😊
This is definitely something to think about we don’t think about this at mid 30’s I have my parish as emergency contact if anything happens to me life-threatening to request for a priest but now I am starting to feel like I need to go to the Catholic cemetery and talk to them about preparations of a funeral and how much that would cost because I would be so afraid to pass away and not have these expenses paid for what would happen to me then
My young Daughter passed away unexpectedly white she was visiting Florida. She was baptized in a Catholic Church and went to a Catholic grade school. I'm still heartbroken because she didn't receive her last rites. I had to fly to Florida alone to bring my daughter home for her wake and burial. I had a Catholic priest do a mass at the funeral home while people were there. I put her in a Tomb, however not in a Catholic cemetery. The cemetery she's laid to rest is right by our home. I taught her to drive there and we would walk through that cemetery, together, because of its beauty. It has streams and bridges. However, it still bothers me that she never received her last rites. I pray for her Soul. I don't remember the mass. I was praying to God begging him to give me back my daughter. I was asking God to take me and let my Daughter live her life. The fact that she didn't receive her last rites bothers me. Last year my Grandmother was at the end of her life. She was 101..She followed the Catholic Church and we couldn't be with her because of Covid, I called my Aunt and told her Grandmother needs her last rights. After she received them she peacefully passed.
You guys should make an episode where you talk about mysticism within the Catholic church. Topics like deep prayer, mental prayer, meditation, contemplation, adoration. I'm sure there are subjects father Pagano, and the Ryans would know on the topic. You could talk about mystical saints like Padre pio or St Theresa of Avila
What a great show! I would encourage parishioners to join the Ministry of Consolation in their parish. The death of a member of the church provides the entire Christian community the opportunity to express care and concern towards those who mourn, evangelized those who have been away from the church, and renews and revitalizes parish life for those involved in the ministry.
I already told my family I’m an only child I need to be buried in Costa Rica with my mom. Just give me a service and pray for my. That my close friends and family already know I need to have a picture of my parents my rosary and a small toy that my dad saved for me and my wedding picture. Sounds strange but I already have everything in a ziplock bag for that day. Thanks
I understood that the “old” rites had prayers that gave the recipient an indulgence to give grace that would enable you to avoid purgatory & go straight to heaven & sacrament of the sick does not have this attachment.
Always pray for the Poor Souls in Purgatory, not just family and friends, but especially those who have no one to pray for them. They'll thank you for it and be happy you did. It's a work of mercy, and you can't help but feel sorry for them. Also, removing hats for prayer has to be brought back like in this video. Basic respect.
Can someone explain what is happening in some Catholic churches? My family are not a Catholic. When my aunt, who was a Catholic, died we attended her memorial service. We were shocked and offended by the happy-clappy revivalist tenor of the service. The priest told people to turn to their neighbours and say hello, shake hands, even hug. There was no solemnity. I half expected the priest to bang a tambourine during the singing of hymns. We were in mourning yet these morons were behaving as if they were at a party. I grew up in a mainly Catholic area and I'm quite sure my old neighbours would also have been shocked by the shenanigans at that church.
I have told my family I want a sign at the funeral home saying "Please maintain a respectful silence past this point". I have seen too many people visiting, so how are you, did you take a vacation, erc. in front of the casket
my impression is that the service in USA tends to be less solemn than over here in Europe. Having said that, the basis idea is that we believe that death is not the end. The best is still to come. We will continue to live after death in the presence of good, so will your aunt. Therefore death, while being a sad event on earth, is nothing to fear. Or as I read on one funeral stone here: "If you knew how it is where I am know, you would ask yourself, why did we cry?" So, we celebrate our prospect of life after death. Hence the catholic mass is a happy, though somewhat solemn event.
@@willweeverknow696 This service was in England. The purpose of the service is to pray for the soul of the departed and mourn their loss, not have a jolly social occasion. My aunt had done a lot of work, hard work, for the church .
@@seekingjustice2079 While we struggle in this earth about what we do or not do, and are concern about our feelings and having everything our way; we may be shock that God does not follow our sentiments in what we feel or see things since He knows we lack his understanding of basically everything. When one dies and IF that person is received into the abode of Heaven; while we are weeping in sorrow here or picking on everything about the service being done to our satisfaction, their souls are in a bigger celebration our minds cannot comprehend while on earth!
To start to answer one of your questions,, the Sign of Peace (greeting your neighbor etc) is shared during a Mass as part of the service. You start off by saying that you are not Catholic. By that I am going to conclude that you have not attended many Catholic Masses. So I would suggest that maybe you do a little research on what's "normal" for a Mass. It can vary widely by the parish. I urge you to not judge what you have not attempted to understand. Consider also, your aunt may have requested an upbeat tone for her Mass.
Haven't seen the whole episode yet, but I'm wondering something. If someone dies in a fire, some or maybe most of their remains get left behind wherever the fire was. What's ya'll's take on that circumstance, since they're unavoidably scattered, to some degree.
you know we're to young when my father died i have 2 brothers and 3 sisters im the oldest im only 22 yrs old i dont know what to do so its hard to accept death
Can I ask a related question here? My sister passed away a couple years ago, she was cremated. I’m not certain where her ashes are now, but my brother said he was going to have jewelry made for each sibling from the ashes. All my sibs are fallen away Catholics, except myself (reversion in 2001). How do I approach this situation?
Looking for illumination here on the belief of the resurrection of the body. I was recommended to watch your video on heaven and have started to, but I'm not clear on the bridge from bodily resurrection to heaven. Will heaven be on this earth, and we with our bodies will walk about as before? Or, will we be discorporate spiritual entities in capital h Heaven? If resurrection comes at the end of days, like, where's Grandma RIGHT NOW?
So when v die do we go into a state of sleep and then judgement followed by heaven or hell OR do we after death go to purgatory, heaven or hell? Coz I had come across a verse somewhere that states that the blood of so and so cries out to me saying how much longer do I have to wait? Then Jesus says till the moment the exact number of ppl have died. So I'm confused.
Jesus himself in Mtt 9:24 "the girl is not dead but sleeping." The body is what we call dead but the spirit that goes unto its maker goes on forth is plenty awake. Our bodies await the resurrection while the spirit rest or sleeps in peace of his maker. I taught my kids never to fear death because is not what the regular eyes see but a reality many do not understand in this generation. Hope this helped!
@@yvescallahan2103 Yes. Its true. I dont fear death. I guess if u are already trying ur best to live out ur faith on earth throughout life, u dont fear death. U kind of look forward to ur reward of being with ur Creator.
Can a viaticum or extreme unction be requested by a person who is not sick, but they live alone, living away from everyone.. in case, he dies suddenly?
It's a bigger surprise to me that people would not visit their relatives graves on All Souls Day to lay flowers, remember them in life and pray for them in death. I've done it 60 odd years as my parents and grand parents have before me. It never occurred to me that Catholics would ignore their dead by not visiting them. :-( Month's Mind masses are not celebrated in the USA any more?? OMG. The local newspapers have Months Mind Masses as well as Anniversary Masses listed everyday with ads posted by grieving families. I get that people in Western countries may not display their beliefs so openly by placing newspaper advertisements to inform their friends and the community at large, but surely they at least offer Masses for their dead?
I'm a Practicing catholic Home age 66 I want to be cremated because It costs so much for a burial I am not rich I have very little Why insurance it would not cover it Because I have a illness Life insurance policies would not cover me Because of my illness I had to get a life insurance that guarantees They would cover me and that's not very much coverage My children in my wife would suffer because they would not Have very much money to survive .
unfortunately there are bored people out there and they just give thumb down to anything catholic, I mean anything! We all need to ignore the ignorant just pray for them!
I think that the prayers for the family of the dead are important for the protection of these people. Grieving people can be targets of demonic forces because demons can impersonate the deceased and appear to the family of the deceased. This has happened to me in two cases where relatives died. And I've talked with other people who believe that their dead relative is appearing to them, some of these people very intelligent. One woman I worked with, a lawyer, believed that her deceased grandmother was appearing to her and watching over her. Another woman, a neighbor, would go to the cemetery where her grandparents were buried and talk to them, to actually pray to them, for help. This all sounds crazy, but a lot of intelligent or otherwise sane people fall for this kind of deception. It's overwhelming when you believe that your deceased loved one is actually appearing to you, and this experience seems to be common. One radio host in the area where I live talked about a dream he had of his deceased daughter (Bob Dutko on a Detroit area radio station WMUZ). In the dream, he was walking up a staircase, until he reached a hallway at the top of the stairs. There were some doors along the hallway. He opened one, and saw his daughter. She ran to him and cried, begging for his help, for him to get her out of there. And he said to her to ask Jesus for help. At that point, his "daughter" turned into a monster and started attacking him. Because this wasn't his daughter at all, it was a demonic presence trying to influence him in his time of grief. This incident stuck me because it was similar to a dream I had of my mother after she died. The dream began, like this radio host's, with me walking up a staircase. I came to the top of the stairs to a hallway, and opened one of the doors in the hallway. And my mother was in there. Then "she" took me outside in a kind of courtyard of the building she was in. The courtyard was OK, but I was sort of disturbed for some reason by the high brick walls surrounding it. At one point, I stood on my toes trying to see over the wall, but it was too tall and I couldn't see anything. Then the dream ended. Some years later I came across a scripture in Isaiah that says that the Devil keeps his captives surrounded by tall walls that they can't see over, and realized I had seen those walls.
My mom passed away on June 24th of this year from cancer. I prayed the Divine Mercy Chaplet almost everyday for her to go in peace once she became terminal at the end of May. None of us were in the room with her when she died due to restrictions on visiting hours at the hospice from COVID.

I was born into a Hindu family in India and converted into a Christian (Catholic) with no one pushing me into it. It’s by God’s pure pathway and miracles I chose to become one.
Where can I reach out to testify and share my story?
Thank you.
There are many platforms, mostly being in youtube, you just need to search on that topic. e.g: "My Catholic conversion story."
@@la.x-neverthedodgers thank you. That’s helpful.
I am watching here in the Philippines.I like to watch your program because I learned many things about my catholic religion.

I understood that the “old” rites had prayers that gave the recipient an indulgence to give grace that would enable you to avoid purgatory & go straight to heaven & sacrament of the sick does not have this attachment.
My father died in 2018. A couple of days before he passed the parish priest gave him the Apostolic Blessing, which imparted a plenary indulgence.
Amen
Always pray for the Poor Souls in Purgatory, not just family and friends, but especially those who have no one to pray for them. They'll thank you for it and be happy you did. It's a work of mercy, and you can't help but feel sorry for them.

I'm practicing Catholic . For my funeral, can I request what the priest toast talks about choosing a bible verse?
Can someone explain what is happening in some Catholic churches? My family are not a Catholic. When my aunt, who was a Catholic, died we attended her memorial service. We were shocked and offended by the happy-clappy revivalist tenor of the service. The priest told people to turn to their neighbours and say hello, shake hands, even hug. There was no solemnity. I half expected the priest to bang a tambourine during the singing of hymns. We were in mourning yet these morons were behaving as if they were at a party. I grew up in a mainly Catholic area and I'm quite sure my old neighbours would also have been shocked by the shenanigans at that church.
I have told my family I want a sign at the funeral home saying "Please maintain a respectful silence past this point". I have seen too many people visiting, so how are you, did you take a vacation, erc. in front of the casket
my impression is that the service in USA tends to be less solemn than over here in Europe. Having said that, the basis idea is that we believe that death is not the end. The best is still to come. We will continue to live after death in the presence of good, so will your aunt. Therefore death, while being a sad event on earth, is nothing to fear. Or as I read on one funeral stone here: "If you knew how it is where I am know, you would ask yourself, why did we cry?" So, we celebrate our prospect of life after death. Hence the catholic mass is a happy, though somewhat solemn event.
@@willweeverknow696 This service was in England. The purpose of the service is to pray for the soul of the departed and mourn their loss, not have a jolly social occasion. My aunt had done a lot of work, hard work, for the church .
@@seekingjustice2079 While we struggle in this earth about what we do or not do, and are concern about our feelings and having everything our way; we may be shock that God does not follow our sentiments in what we feel or see things since He knows we lack his understanding of basically everything. When one dies and IF that person is received into the abode of Heaven; while we are weeping in sorrow here or picking on everything about the service being done to our satisfaction, their souls are in a bigger celebration our minds cannot comprehend while on earth!
To start to answer one of your questions,, the Sign of Peace (greeting your neighbor etc) is shared during a Mass as part of the service.
You start off by saying that you are not Catholic. By that I am going to conclude that you have not attended many Catholic Masses. So I would suggest that maybe you do a little research on what's "normal" for a Mass. It can vary widely by the parish.
I urge you to not judge what you have not attempted to understand.
Consider also, your aunt may have requested an upbeat tone for her Mass.
Haven't seen the whole episode yet, but I'm wondering something. If someone dies in a fire, some or maybe most of their remains get left behind wherever the fire was. What's ya'll's take on that circumstance, since they're unavoidably scattered, to some degree.
Fr. Rich losing weight? He looks great!
Donations are down due to Corona. Sadly, It's all rice and beans at the rectory these days...
@@CatholicTalkShow Whatever it takes!
I pray the Chaplet for the Holy Souls in Purgatory. And the eternal rest prayer everyday without fail
you know we're to young when my father died i have 2 brothers and 3 sisters im the oldest im only 22 yrs old i dont know what to do so its hard to accept death
there should not have been a commercial after the Sign of the Cross and before the prayer.
Can I ask a related question here? My sister passed away a couple years ago, she was cremated. I’m not certain where her ashes are now, but my brother said he was going to have jewelry made for each sibling from the ashes. All my sibs are fallen away Catholics, except myself (reversion in 2001). How do I approach this situation?
I should add some clarity... do I reject the jewelry stating the Church’s teachings? Do I accept it and bury it appropriately?
What about rosary in the coffin? Do you have to break them?
Looking for illumination here on the belief of the resurrection of the body. I was recommended to watch your video on heaven and have started to, but I'm not clear on the bridge from bodily resurrection to heaven. Will heaven be on this earth, and we with our bodies will walk about as before? Or, will we be discorporate spiritual entities in capital h Heaven? If resurrection comes at the end of days, like, where's Grandma RIGHT NOW?
So when v die do we go into a state of sleep and then judgement followed by heaven or hell OR do we after death go to purgatory, heaven or hell? Coz I had come across a verse somewhere that states that the blood of so and so cries out to me saying how much longer do I have to wait? Then Jesus says till the moment the exact number of ppl have died. So I'm confused.
We did a full video on that! th-cam.com/video/ppzV4sH_I_4/w-d-xo.html
Jesus himself in Mtt 9:24 "the girl is not dead but sleeping." The body is what we call dead but the spirit that goes unto its maker goes on forth is plenty awake. Our bodies await the resurrection while the spirit rest or sleeps in peace of his maker. I taught my kids never to fear death because is not what the regular eyes see but a reality many do not understand in this generation. Hope this helped!
@@yvescallahan2103 Yes. Its true. I dont fear death. I guess if u are already trying ur best to live out ur faith on earth throughout life, u dont fear death. U kind of look forward to ur reward of being with ur Creator.
@@CatholicTalkShow Thank you. I missed this notification somehow but I watched the video.
You're Not in the Moment, Ryan Shield! You're Not In The Moment! 😋🤣🤣
Can a viaticum or extreme unction be requested by a person who is not sick, but they live alone, living away from everyone.. in case, he dies suddenly?
No
Memento Mori 💀
Wear your pendants.💀
for me its painful to accept death especially the brave winner of the family
Can an individual, Bless the plot that is on personal property. It would be for a creamated person?
It's a bigger surprise to me that people would not visit their relatives graves on All Souls Day to lay flowers, remember them in life and pray for them in death. I've done it 60 odd years as my parents and grand parents have before me. It never occurred to me that Catholics would ignore their dead by not visiting them. :-( Month's Mind masses are not celebrated in the USA any more?? OMG. The local newspapers have Months Mind Masses as well as Anniversary Masses listed everyday with ads posted by grieving families. I get that people in Western countries may not display their beliefs so openly by placing newspaper advertisements to inform their friends and the community at large, but surely they at least offer Masses for their dead?
I was wondering if I could be a donor as a Catholic and my remains be buried.
I was taught it is a sin not to pray for people in purgatory.
What if you got Fargo'd in a wood chipper. Do you still get a new body?
I'm a Practicing catholic Home age 66 I want to be cremated because It costs so much for a burial I am not rich I have very little Why insurance it would not cover it Because I have a illness Life insurance policies would not cover me Because of my illness I had to get a life insurance that guarantees They would cover me and that's not very much coverage My children in my wife would suffer because they would not Have very much money to survive .
Pray for is at the hour of...
Man in white you pray the rosary?
Can Catholics be cremated or is this against Catholic faith?
Catholic Church is here to live for ever coz it is the only true Church if Hesus Christ whether you like it or not
I prayed for years for a happy death. Didn't happen.
Who are the 5 idiots disliking this video? Are the even listening to the content?
unfortunately there are bored people out there and they just give thumb down to anything catholic, I mean anything! We all need to ignore the ignorant just pray for them!
I think that the prayers for the family of the dead are important for the protection of these people. Grieving people can be targets of demonic forces because demons can impersonate the deceased and appear to the family of the deceased. This has happened to me in two cases where relatives died. And I've talked with other people who believe that their dead relative is appearing to them, some of these people very intelligent. One woman I worked with, a lawyer, believed that her deceased grandmother was appearing to her and watching over her. Another woman, a neighbor, would go to the cemetery where her grandparents were buried and talk to them, to actually pray to them, for help. This all sounds crazy, but a lot of intelligent or otherwise sane people fall for this kind of deception. It's overwhelming when you believe that your deceased loved one is actually appearing to you, and this experience seems to be common.
One radio host in the area where I live talked about a dream he had of his deceased daughter (Bob Dutko on a Detroit area radio station WMUZ). In the dream, he was walking up a staircase, until he reached a hallway at the top of the stairs. There were some doors along the hallway. He opened one, and saw his daughter. She ran to him and cried, begging for his help, for him to get her out of there. And he said to her to ask Jesus for help. At that point, his "daughter" turned into a monster and started attacking him. Because this wasn't his daughter at all, it was a demonic presence trying to influence him in his time of grief. This incident stuck me because it was similar to a dream I had of my mother after she died. The dream began, like this radio host's, with me walking up a staircase. I came to the top of the stairs to a hallway, and opened one of the doors in the hallway. And my mother was in there. Then "she" took me outside in a kind of courtyard of the building she was in. The courtyard was OK, but I was sort of disturbed for some reason by the high brick walls surrounding it. At one point, I stood on my toes trying to see over the wall, but it was too tall and I couldn't see anything. Then the dream ended. Some years later I came across a scripture in Isaiah that says that the Devil keeps his captives surrounded by tall walls that they can't see over, and realized I had seen those walls.
Bobbleheads. What a disgrace to our Lord and Martyred Saints.
