I can only fault the church for not having a requiem mass for the innocent foetus. Caroline knew the stance of her catholic faith against abortion, against marital infidelity but she chose the easy path. The masses are moral in condemning her actions. The church must be more moral than the masses. If we had glorious funerals in the church for all murderers, gichuge type terrorists and witches then the masses will lose faith. Let Caroline be buried by her pro-choice people with their own rituals.

Even in traditional african society they were different burial practices. Those who went against the community taboos and values got a different funeral than lets say a respected elder. Funeral practices is a way for the living to accord respect for the departed. If you are a local thug don't expect people to turn up for your funeral. In fact what I see nowadays in rural kenya if the community knows you are a thug the immediate family will bury in a quick ceremony.

This illusion of irresponsibility that young people are living under is not the way. You can't go and impregnate someones wife and casually give her money to go abort then call us for a requiem mass. This thinking that one can sin and go to church for absolution for the sins then go back and sin some more is total nonsense. I hope the church can also do the same to those who are corrupt and bring their corrupt money to the church.

There must be a way of teaching values to the younger generation.
