Name: FiveMore
Comment: Ummmp!That sounds pretty strange to me, knowing that Issac's regular family/friends had to play second fiddle to the sect.(Friedman is a faux's clone, so you have to take everthing he says with a grain of salt cause he lies and faux lies as well,smdh)The Scientologist run the show even after you are dead and buried in the ground.WOW!Also, I thought this was to honor the Soul Man, and not some strange leader of the confusing religion that is Scientology???I can't believe he got caught up in that stuff in the first place and really I wanna say RIP, brother Issac but..Okay, Issac we love the hot buttered soul music that you shared with the world.RIP,Soul Man!

Name: Grace12_34
Comment: I co-sign with FiveMore about being incredulous that Isaac Hayes was a Scientologist. SMH. Ok, now bring on THE WILL and THE FIGHT OVER IT!!!

Name: nightshift
Comment: Unless I missed it in the line-up, but was his wife there? she had to have sanctioned this. Gladys Knight is one as well, she said it cured her of her pesky little gambling habit.

Name: McNasty
Comment: What difference does it make and who is a funeral director expert anyway?! There were a lot of people and whomever made sure they were all able to pay tribute. For this jew to dis.sect the service shows how little respect he has. These details could have been left un printed because its just enough of a pot of shat for the media to stir up some big drama over.

Name: bigchassie
Comment: OKAY, WHAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN IS THIS...have a musical tribute to Issac and have it on television. and this really needs to be done. this man was truly an icon of music.

Name: B00TANEB00TUS
Comment: ...Listen, He was brought up on the Memphis streets. He learned how to sing before he could eat He built up STAXX with good stock When he started talking, he couldn't stop He's a soul man, He's a soul man,(Play it Steve) He's a soul man, He's a soul man....Ooooh lawd!...Soul man, and you, Soul man...Imma soul man...We a soul man...Oooooh naw!...Soul man...C'mon, Soul man...Hold on!...Soul man, Soul man

Name: SpecialK
Comment: I'm just glad they laid him to rest and not put his body on tour like they did James Brown. RIP Mr. Hayes!!

Name: nightshift
Comment: SpecialK, you got that right. JB's send-off was nothing more than a freak show. So what he's buried in a mostly "causasian" spot, as long as he ain't hanging out in my fridge, I'm good.

Name: unclekipper
Comment: hey nightshift, gladys knight is not a scientologist. she's a mormon. and it is a big deal that he's not buried near his grandmother. 'ike dirty' we're praying for you, man!

Name: huey
Comment: did i read in this stoopit article that denzel is alledgedly a scientologist? i dont but that, as i recall denzel and his fam attend a church in south central l.a. somewhere. i think its a baptist church.

Name: JustTellingTheTruth
Comment: @Huey -- Naaaaaawww Denzel is not apart of the Science Experiment. The stoopit article stated he had a "nonreligious" connection to Isaac.

Name: nightshift
Comment: Thanks for keeping me straght unclekipper. That said, Mormonism is another story, 'cause for more years than can be counted, they banned blacks from even ENTERING their church. I know it as fact b/c while in the military, I met goo-gahs of them that told me so. ...Sorry for getting off track posters.

Name: JustTellingTheTruth
Comment: @UncleKipper--don't beat me down for going there, but did Isaac's widow really know he should've been buried near his GrandMother? Maybe he didn't have "special" wishes/instructions noted somewhere before he passed away? Maybe she did what she thought was "acceptable" or what the Scientologists said they'd pay for?

Name: Kyenn
Comment: weather or not you agree with his decision to be a scientologist, you should at least respect the man's belief and have his funeral accordingly.

Name: B00TANEB00TUS
Comment: ...Didn't Denzil grow up in the Pentacostal church?...Just can't see him as scientologists...Now, I can see George Clinton....He was into motherships...and swing down chariots, stop and let me ride....swing down chariots, stop and let me ride....swing down chariots, stop and let me ride....

Name: nightshift
Comment: We've lost another brother , Mr. Julius Carry who played "Sno-Nuff" in the Last dragon just passed away. RIP

Name: Janissi
Comment: Just for the record, Denzel is not a Scientologist. He goes to Bishop Blake's church on Crenshaw in L.A. I can't for the life of me think of the name right off, but it is a huge church.
