Raemon, would you say something about how you addressed the topic of death? It hadn’t occurred to me that this was something a community should be preparing for, but it made sense once you explained it.
I’m intending to post the written version of the speech I gave as a separate article. (I deviated a bit from it, since I wasn’t reading from a script, but the gist is the same)
Originally I was going to wait till the end, to wrap up the sequence, but after some comments on this thread I realized it was really important to do that sooner rather than later, so that when I say “ritual is a pretty important thing” readers had better context of what I was talking about and why.
I am leaning towards posting it tomorrow. I figure I should at least give people a day to see this article, and give them a a chance to read through the book. (Thoughts on how to best approach that are welcome, perhaps by PM.)
