I STILL cant believe that the priest REFUSED to allow My Sweet Lord to be played at my Mothers Catholic funeral. HE EMPHATICALLY REFUSED MY REQUEST for comfort through heartfelt song. Im almost to the point of forgiving him...but he stole from me something that was not his to take. I HATE ORGANIZED RELIGION. Im not Catholic anymore I was speechless for a few moments. What could I say? I already had said too much. Ibe been listening to REMs Losing My Religion: for weeks, and crying...... The funeral is, he replied in that low spiritual tone which is always barely audible...like hearing your forgiveness in the confessional. They are taught to speak in inaudible terms, I swear to God, my loving God in heaven above. I was frank in questioning the priest...You will not allow the peace about my mother;s passing that song would give me? The Catholics did NOTHING to console me when my father died in 1974. Has so little changed...?. I remember growing up Catholic, and I said to the most Reverend Father,in a tone of voice that Im sure shamed my mother in her not yet grave, This is no different than when I was a child in the church. WE HAD TO ASK THE PARISH PRIESTS PERMISSION TO ATTEND THE SERVICE OF ANY OTHER CHURCH. I was angry and unkind. Youre still trying to save me from the Baptists and the Methodists... MY Sweet Lord...and by then I was in tears. The priest, not My Father, allowed Let It Be and In My Life. Gonna get those two musicians into a recording studio, and use the song as a video backup for my book, now going by the name of Pools of Sorrow, Waves of Joy..
