Cause for hope

First one home is a thief.  Jesus is not very fastidious about the company he keeps. - Fr. Richard John Neuhaus, Death on a Friday Afternoon

Thank God. Perhaps there is hope, after all, for one such as I.

A serious question is raised about those who will be with us in paradise - assuming, for the moment, that we will be there. - ibid.

I know I must have reflected on this before: what if the biggest obstacle to our entering into paradise is our unwillingness to spend eternity with the others who have received God's mercy?
