Shlomo Lkhoolkhoon,
Hello everyone. First I wish to say that I am doing much better in my life situation. Not a hundred percent, but better than 50.

I came across this article in the Remant Newspaper [remnantnewspaper.com] and was wondering what others thought. For those who do not have time to read the article, the author argues that like Mary, the Mother of God; St. Joseph, the Husband of Mary, was takenup into Heaven Body and Soul with Jesus. To quote the article: St. Joseph has been assumed body and soul into Heaven as a reward for his great service to God and the unique role that he played in the earthly life of our Saviour.

So tell me what you all think. After reading the article I agree with the author, and I plan on looking into if we Maronites as a Church agree.

Personally I think the idea is pointless speculation, but it is no skin off my nose if someone wants to believe it privately.

I don't believe this one bit; and I've been prayin' to St. Joseph for years.

I think it's competely bizarre.
