18 Year-Old Aurora Shooting Victim Was ‘Uncompromising’ Catholic

Posted By Brian Kelly On July 25, 2012

National Catholic Register: Close friend [Corey] Callahan, a Buddhist, “said A.J. Boik was a gifted and popular high-school baseball player who was known mostly for his uncompromising Catholic faith. ‘He was the most faithful person I’ve known,’ Callahan said. ‘Before every meal at school, he would always pray and cross himself.’” Read more about A.J Boik and another devout young Catholic, Alex Sullivan, who had come back to the Faith on his own initiative and was enjoying the RCIA program, here[1].

    A.J. Boik, Alex Sullivan et al.: Requiescant in pace/May their memory be eternal.

    Are you serious? That is a completely inappropriate remark. As a Catholic you should pray for his soul and for his grieving family. What a terrible example you are. Pathetic!

    OK, technically, yes, we can question and critique somebody’s movie-going habits. I’ll admit I even went to see the movie myself, and perhaps I should not have.

    But no, we don’t throw this in a victim’s face and proclaim that his murder is divine retribution for whatever sins he may have committed. Please rethink this, WRS.
