The doctrine of the
absolute continuity between the Kingdom of the Living and the Kingdom of the
Dead is as central to Roman Catholicism as it is to every traditional African
spirituality system, from the Mystery System of Kemet to the spirituality
systems of the Yoruba, the Akan, etc. Justice Scalia was very Roman Catholic;
his son is a priest. But Justice Scalia was very, very, very, white—were there
any Blacks in the group of 98 who had clerked for the Justice?
Roman Catholicism is the
most African of the so-called world religions of our times. Roman Catholicism
is, then, more Black than White. Justice Scalia in the Kingdom of the Ancestors
must now understand this. Would that his loved ones still in the Land of the
Living would be open to this understanding.
