This was known to have happened in the case of suicides. The actress Carole Landis, nominally a Catholic, was refused church burial by the authorities- therefore some Protestant minister officiated at her funeral- and she was laid to rest in Forest Lawn cemetry in the ( Everlasting Love) section. Somewhat oddly this did not apply to Lupe Velez, as there was some portent that the overdose of sleeping tablets- which she vomited up- then.. may have had second thoughts or was possibly accidental. It happened in bed, not on the highway, not that type of accident. Miss Velez was known as the Mexican Spitfire and was a popular film star, she died in l944. Miss Landis was a couple of years after the War. Not related to Baseball commissioner Judge!

What are the benefits of being a registered Catholic?

According to Canon Law, everyone who resides in the physical boundaries of parish is a Catholic belonging to that parish. However, one must be registered in the parish to get certain benefits. For instance, your parish priest must attend to your spiritual needs, if you are registered parishioner. He must baptize your children, hear your confession, attend to you when you are sick with the sacraments, and bury you when you die. Oh, and of course, you get envelopes and the monthly diocesan newspaper!

Can you be a Catholic if you are not baptized?

Yes, the Church only gives Its rites and honors to those who are Her members. It would make little sense in reciting prayers or lavishing services on someone who choose not to believe in them while living. The Church will certainly bury a non-Catholic as it is one of the corporal acts of mercy, however, the funeral mass, if requested, would have to be private and the burial would take place in ground that has not been consecrated. However, a non-Catholic spouse is frequently given a Catholic funeral especially if he/she has been very supportive of his/her spouse's religion and allowed the children to be brought up as Catholics.
