I was at a funeral a few weeks ago that was also in a catholic church. The church was on a native reserve and had no power or water because it was in disuse due to COVID or something. It was packed and a bunch of people were outside, some of which because they didn't like catholicism. The priest was pretty lame tbh, he didn't speak any truths or insight and just talked about choices when the funeral was for a murder victim. There were people from all walks of life and I sat near a regional (at least) celebrity who was quite choked up. I was overcome with anger the whole time. Security blocked off streets in every direction and people had to walk up from quite a ways. When the body was carried out and the drumming hit (after the moving and uniting eulogy) everyone got pretty choked up and took turns touching the casket. After a certain point I realized I wasn't going to feel any better so I left, ran into someone I knew who didn't attend the funeral and we smoked a joint at a gas station while I was wearing a black suit and he was dressed like a bum and driving a 4 wheeler.
Tl dr the priest sucked but it was a decently respectful and somber send off for someone who was one of the good guys in a world full of bad
Smoking drugs after a memorial with old high school friends you havent seen in a decade, both in your funeral/court clothes....
