This is pretty neat. St. Vladimir's Seminary Press has made available audio from their summer institute on death.
This is pretty gross. One can have a corpse transformed into a diamond. I'm not making this up. What's wrong with a coffin?
I just recently watched Master and Commander on DVD. (We have a new iMac Duo.) There was a funeral scene in that movie that had me in tears. The movie is worth renting. Perhaps, it is not for young children.
My friend Jeff, with whom I used to blog received some bad news today. His dad has inopperable cancer. It looks pretty grim. If you get a chance, please, pray for Bill.
I'm so sorry to hear about Bill, I will keep him in my prayres.
ReplyDeleteMy sister wants to make my mother into a diamond - can you see me banging my head against the wall? I cannot imagine anything grosser. Bury me, please.
SICK SICK SICK SICK SICK!
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for you, Mimi. I hope this is resolved quickly and peacefully.
My mom is still living, so it's not an immediate issue.
ReplyDeleteI suspect, sadly, she'll get her wish, and I'll end up just praying a lot.
