Why redmax, what a lovely compliment.
I don't remember meeting you, so I assume another OSA'r told you of my striking good looks. Most likely Shootin 4 Fun, I hear he goes on and on about it.

Boy I dunno ... When GC and I got together and I would tell him some of the stuff that went on he would give me that look ... you know that "I'll humor her but nobody is that bad" one. Even asked me when I was gonna introduce him to my folks and I told him "when I'm ready to get rid of your arse".
THEN he met them at my grandson's funeral. They couldn't even behave long enough for me and my son to get his infant son in the ground ... what a mess ...
I know how you feel, I had a great uncle who died, At his funeral the preacher said " This is the hardest thing I have ever been asked to do because I know Willie Toney's soul has gone to Hell" And walked off of from the pulpit. The others aren't as bad but some come real close!!
OMG!!
I'll say one thing for them all ... they sure make me feel good about myself!! I didn't turn out so bad after all ... married good, own my own house, pay my bills, don't drink too much or smoke crack, not a whore (ok ... depends on who you talk to), try not to lie, cheat or steal ... can read and write fairly well ... God knows given my genetics and upbringing I could have turned out a WHOLE lot worse ... 
By the time I was done with that preacher, he would have a first hand understanding of a legal hell. Some Christian. What a douche.
Sometimes the drive isn't far enough away either!!!!
This is why I don't attend organized religious communities.
I met God in a foxhole, and don't need anybody else telling me how I'm supposed to handle him/her.
The family should have sued him and hopefully the resultant publicity would have driven him out of the ministry.
It really depends on Hipshot's great uncle. You never can tell but everybody there might have agreed with the Preacher. I have one uncle who's funeral I will go to just to make sure he is really dead.
Yes most of my family seems to fall in line with what others have posted. Most do not even have my phone number let alone know where I live, and I like to keep it that way.

Rick, BS! The preacher should have declined to speak rather than humilate the family.
I'm not a real people person I guess.
It's a combination of distrust and shyness.
