French philosopher Gabriel Marcel famously stated, To say to someone “I love you” is to say, “you will never be lost.” As Christians, we understand this in terms of our unity inside the Body of Christ. Our love for someone links him or her to us, and since we are part of the Body of Christ, he or she too is linked to the Body of Christ, and to touch Christ is to touch grace. Thanks to the marvels of the Incarnation, every sincere Christian can say, “my heaven includes this or that particular person whom I love.” We used to call this “baptism by desire”, except that in this instance the desire for “baptism” is on our part, but still equally efficacious. We need to recognize that God loves these persons more than we do and is more solicitous for their happiness and salvation than we are. God loves everyone individually and passionately and works in ways to ensure that nobody gets lost. God is infinitely patient. If we bracket piety for a moment, we might profitably compare God to a Global Positioning System (GPS) given how infinitely patient and yet persistent a GPS is in giving us directions. It never gives up on us. God is the same. We have an intended destination and God gives us constant instructions along the way. Like a trusted GPS, God is forever saying ‘recalculating’ and giving us new instructions predicated on our failure to accept the previous instruction. Eventually, no matter our number of wrong turns and dead ends, God will get us home. Ultimately, God is the only game in town, in that no matter how many false roads we take and how many good roads we ignore, we all end up on the one, same, last, final road. All of us: atheists, agnostics, nones, dones, searchers, procrastinators, those who don’t believe in institutionalized religion, the indifferent, the belligerent, the angry, the bitter, and the wounded, end up on the same road heading towards the same destination – death. However, the good news is that this last road, for all of us, the pious and the impious alike, leads to God.
