But Catholicism also teaches us not to judge whether someone is damned or 
not — that's up to God. For a sin to be mortal it requires that it be a 
grave matter (check), with full knowledge and deliberate consent. Grayson 
Murray was a Christian, but I don't know if he was Catholic (and even if he 
was Catholic, Vatican II Catholicism does a terrible job of teaching the 
doctrines of the Faith now). It's questionable whether he had full knowledge 
and deliberately consented to what he might not have known was a mortal sin. 
And, if he suffered mental health issues, it's questionable whether he was 
even able to give deliberate consent with full knowledge. If you have mental 
health issues you're probably not going to be able to think clearly about 
the consequences of your actions.

I would definitely pray for his soul. God is not a legalistic Pharisee.

As for the "damnation doctrine" being "spiritual terrorism," it's actually 
not. It's how people become cognizant to the fact that there are 
consequences for their evil actions. Without justice there can be no mercy. 
And mercy is not hard to obtain. It does require humility, however. The 
cardinal sin of Satan was pride.
