Choking to death on the Eucharist = go directly to Heaven?

There’s only one unforgiveable sin, and murdering babies ain’t it.

In the Episcopal Church, it’s bringing the wrong kind of scotch to the Synod meeting.

It’s a mortal sin, but one that’s forgiveable. There’s only one unforgiveable sin, and murdering babies ain’t it.

Actually, it wouldn’t be. You must repent of mortal sin to receive confession. If you declare yourself justified, you can’t repent.

Can you really choke on the Eucharist anyway? It’s has all the properties of paper, it generally wilts into nothing as soon as it’s in your mouth anway unless you had a wicked case of cottonmouth, and you shouldn’t be high when you take communion I’d suppose.

Well, yes, you do go directly to Heaven (Don’t pass Purgatory, don’t receive 200 indulgences), but you have to endure God’s withering stare, and listen to Him say:

“Well, THAT was a stupid thing to do!”

This keeps most people from doing it.

That and having Jesus and the Holy Ghost snickering in the background and saying “We’re not laughing at you. We’re laughing with you.”
