Hauerwas on Death
“In the Middle Ages, what people feared, is what we want. They feared the sudden death. And they feared the sudden death because they wanted to have time to be reconciled with God, their enemies (who are usually their families), and the church. They wanted to have a lingering death, because what they feared was God. We just feared death. We just want to put it off.”
More good stuff @ the Work of the People.
