Catholic Anarchy
A reader of this blog named James D B sent me this link — catholicanarchy.org — which he describes as a “good quality synthesis of the punk-anarcho-Catholic subculture.” I just glanced at it, and it looks well worth checking out…
Business Week has just published an article about Honey Creek Woodlands, the green cemetary that is opening at the Monastery of the Holy Spirit in Conyers, GA. Follow this link to read it. Green cemetaries are designed to be ecologically sustainable and include not only environmentally responsible funeral practices, but also manage the land so that only indigenous plants, trees, etc. are cultivated. It’s a great concept: a way to have a low-impact funeral and to help preserve a place of natural beauty at the same time. Plus, for us contemplatives, there’s a bonus at Honey Creek Woodlands: we get to be buried on the grounds of a monastery.
