Their father,who is one one of the of the the main inheritors refused to be refused to be buried in the family cemetery on this property. His daughter and son-in-law buried a dog where her own father refused to be buried. I agree with other people about dogs being good-but-they don't belong in a graveyard with people-especially when the people wouldn't be buried their themselves.

I think that priest is a horrible excuse for a human being. Cemeteries are not places of the dead but places for the living. We put our loved ones there to give us a sense that they are somewhere we can still be with them and we place monuments to make sure they are remembered. It speaks volumes about the man who didn't have the slightlest respect for the woman who buried her dog there because she loved him. I don't know what kind of sick bastard "Good Catholic" is but human beings should have enough love and tolerance for all living things and we don't have to "marry" everythig to do it.

THAT's what they should be worrying about. The points: 1. The dog is NOT in a VA cemetery. 2. The owner had permission to bury the pet there. 3. The priest should be concerned with other issues. 4. If a human with the surname S**THEAD was buried there, no one would bat an eye. They'd probably laugh.

Unfortunately, this isn't the case in most legal battles (where pets are only worth their monetary value). But, since people who have animals in their home tend to view them as family, they should have every right to bury their beloved pet in the same cemetery they will be laid to rest in. I'm assuming that this is not a veterans' cemetery (since the dog wouldn't have been allowed to be buried there). So, as far as the dog being buried near a veterans' memorial, does this Father feel as though the dog is unworthy of such an honor? If so, has he verified that people with unoffensive names near the memorial "worthy" of the honor?(not that any of them aren't, just a point) Again, as others have said, aren't there better things to be doing in ANY legal system than arguing over names on tombstones and whether or not to dig up a body that has been buried for 8 years (dog or person)?

Humans should learn to choose their battles more wisely - what a waste of time to worry about this being offensive. Get over it and let the dog lie in peace.

I don't think veterans would be offended by the dog being with them, or anyone else for that matter. Maybe Father Baker should put as much thought and effort into fighting some of the real social issues confronting people in this country today. Maybe he should think about protecting some of the innocent children abused by his peers or those needing some food and education. Maybe he would like to comfort those dying of illness without being able to get adequate medical care in our very rich, and bountiful country. I guess if he can't get publicity for being a humanitarian and good samaritan, being as a--hole is just as good!

Whenever there is a conflict of ideas the Christians come off as bigoted, ignorant fools. Why can't they just leave people alone? Not everyone believes as they do. Freedom of religion, or no religion. That is what America is all about. Sh**head, rest in peace!
