The Green Thing
In the line at the store
today, the cashier told an older woman ahead of me that plastic bags weren't
good for the environment. The woman apologized to her and explained, "We
didn't have the green thing back in my day." Back then, they returned all of their bottles to the store. The store sent them back
to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, using the same bottles
over and over. So they really were recycled. They
walked to the grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine
every time they had to go two blocks. Back then, they washed the baby's diapers
because they didn't have the throw-away kind. They dried clothes on a line, not
in an energy gobbling machine burning up 220 volts.... ". Kids got
hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new
clothing. Back then, they had one TV, or radio, in the house not a TV in every
room. And the TV had a small screen, not a screen the size of the state of
Montana. In the kitchen, they blended and stirred by hand because they didn't
have electric machines to do everything for you. Back then, they didn't fire up
an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn. They used a push mower that
ran on human power. They exercised by working so they didn't need to go to a
health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity. They drank from a
fountain when they were thirsty, instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle
every time they had a drink of water. They refilled pens with ink, instead of
buying a new pen, and they replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of
throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull. Back then,
people took the streetcar and kids rode their bikes to school or rode the
school bus, instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour taxi service. They
didn't need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites
2,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest pizza joint. But that old
lady is right. They didn't have the green thing back in her day.
What Should
a Catholic
Know about
Cremation?
The Catholic Church permits cremation. For a number of reasons, the church prefers the burial of the
body, but it does permit the celebration of a funeral with cremated remains.
Among the reasons in favor of burial of the body are
these:
·
Seeing the body confronts people with the mystery of
life and death.
·
The body naturally recalls stories of faith, family
and friend-ship, the words a person spoke, the deeds a
person performed.
·
Although we have virtual electronic friendships,
people best encounter another person through the body.
·
The body experienced the sacraments – being washed
in baptism and anointed in confirmation, and by eating and drinking the body
and blood of Christ in communion.
·
The body is destined for the glory of the
resurrection.
·
The final care of the body demonstrates dignity for
the whole person.
·
Burial imitates the burial of Jesus body, and thus
constitutes another layer of discipleship.
If a Catholic chooses cremation, the church prefers
that the final disposition of the remains be in a public place, such as a
cemetery.
Many
survivors make other arrangements: they retain the ashes at home, divide them
among family members, or scatter them to the elements. The Catholic Church
disapproves of these practices.
According to the Vatican’s Congregation for the
Doctrine of the Faith, the conservation of ashes in one’s home is not
permitted, nor may they be scattered in the air, on land or at sea. Ashes may
not be preserved in mementoes such as jewelry (Ad resurgendum
cum Christo).
The careful placement of ashes honors the remains of
the deceased in the same way that burial of the body does. Furthermore, it
gives a permanent place where future generations may visit to remember, and
where the person’s name can be honorably etched.
Some
crematoriums have a place where the family may gather during the process. If a
family desires to be together, they may spend the time offering suitable
prayers of thanksgiving and hope, such as Psalms 23, 25, 42, 51, 93, 114 and
115:1-12, 116, 118, 119, 121, 122, 123, 126, 130, 132 or 134.
There
are three possibilities for the sequence of events. Here they are in order of
preference:
1. The body
of the deceased is present for the vigil service and the funeral Mass, and
cremation happens before the committal at the cemetery. In this case, the body
may be placed first in a ceremonial coffin that will be interred, and the
removed from it for the cremation.
2. The
cremation and committal take place before the funeral Mass. In this case, the
cremated remains are interred in a cemetery or mausoleum, and then the mourners
gather for the Eucharist.
3. The
cremation takes place before any of the funeral rites begin, and the cremated
remains are present for the vigil, the Mass, and the committal.
Whenever
the ashes are presented in public for the funeral services, they should be treated
with the same dignity and respect offered a human body. The container should be
dignified, and the pallbearers should carry it with honor. Because of the
compact nature of the ashes. Someone may be tempted to carry it more casually.
It is all that remains of a human being. It deserves respect.
