“I would insist that the modern attitude towards death (denial) is related to our culture of consumerism. The dead neither sow nor reap (nor shop). Death is a boundary issue. To live without the recognition of death is to live a false existence, to deny our own contingency. Our life is not our own – it belongs to God. (Jer. 10: 23).”
