Default Pop songs and mawkish behaviour at Funerals...

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/news...-funerals.html


I can understand this POV - dont forget that most ministers do around 3 funerals per week (hardcore if you think about what it entails) and dont forget where these particular funerals are being held etc..

That would be the case if they were booking a funeral like one books a wedding reception but not if they are having it in a Christian church.

Maybe he should just keep his opinions to himself and do his ****ing job.

Pop music... popular music, which touches a lot more people than old hymns they only listen to or sing along with if they have to. If pop music emotes the feelings more suitably, what's the problem?

If I want Sympathy for the Devil played at my funeral, then it's gonna happen.

I am sure that if I go up to the dj booth at G.A.Y. and ask for "My Jesus I Love Thee I Know Thou Art Mine" they would be most accommodating?

People dont really have a range of choice where to go for their funerals they go where everyone else goes...where the graveyards are....

No wonder Christianity is on the decrease. Where in the bible does it say "thou shalt suck the comfort and joy out of everything"?

I'm sure they would if it was important to you and the day was in celebration of your life.

I can arrange something similar for you. I'll dress you up in a YMCA costume and throw you to a pack of Christians.
