Laden caused a holy mess at mass this past Sunday is speaking out to
defend the bizarre benediction.
Henry Borga paid $10 to put
bin Laden’s name on the prayer list at Holy Name of Jesus Catholic
Church in West Palm Beach over the weekend, according to WPTV.
The name appeared with four
others under the mass intentions section in the church’s pamphlet, with
a cross next to bin Laden’s name.
While putting the name on
the list has caused quite a hubbub, Borga, who said he also prayed for
the victims of 9/11, said it was about mercy.
“He was a very bad man but
he deserved to be punished in life, not by losing his life,” Borga said.
“He needs forgiveness and compassion from God.”
