Noting Burying the Dead: Our friends at Full Homely Divinity have written a fine essay on Christian customs associated with funerals and burial. 'the way we deal with death touches us at the very heart of our faith. The way we deal with the dead speaks volumes about what we truly believe and recovering our distinctive funeral customs must be understood as an intrinsic part of our witness to the Gospel.' Good Grief?: Alan Wilson writes for the Guardian (London) on social networking and grieving. 'As a pastor, it strikes me that social networking sites like Facebook could play an important, even vital, role in helping people grieve. [...] Like the burgeoning roadside shrines which are now springing up around England, they mark genuine love, and a new kind of communal response to death.' The Vatican thirst for power divides Christianity and damages Catholicism: Hans Küng weighs in on Pope Benedict's invitation to Anglicans. . |
