The Enduring Genius of ‘The Craft of Dying’
Reading through this article I had a hard time finding the purpose of the book or really the article itself. From the article I might remember that there are &#x27;happy death movement(s)&#x27;, whatever that is since it isn&#x27;t really explained.<p>Does it want to say that death is something normal and should be talked about?<p>For me as a Christian death has been something that I have thought about pretty much all my life. In different facets. Christ died and rose from death, and in this way He conquered death itself. As a Christian I am dead, buried and resurrected with Christ as shown in my baptism. And when my body dies one day, I enter into the kingdom of God and eternal life.<p>Still: Death sucks. Like my brother – who died a few months ago – said: &quot;It would be all good and fine if it wasn&#x27;t for those friggin feelings&quot;. With Christ though, there is hope in the suffering. Because one glorious day: &quot;He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more&quot; [Revelation 21:4].
