Pray For Reason is a
call to Americans of all religions and belief systems who want to see
their country's policies at home and abroad based on facts, history,
and reasonable thought processes.
My favorite:
Dear God (in all your forms),
protect us from those humans among us who wish to direct the destiny
of the world for their own gain. Bring them humility, compassion and
enlightenment, and allow them to see the interconnection of all
beings. (Or bring down upon them a rain of burning rocks, whichever
strikes your fancy.)

Xeni Jardin:

Many readers wrote in to follow up on recent BoingBoing posts on
churches and tombs built from human remains (
one,
two). Here are some of your suggestions.
Reader Brennen says, "I stayed in
Prague for a few days this summer, and blogged about a day-trip to
Kutna Hora. The cathedral is spectacular; the ossuary is just weird.
One skull might be shocking - several thousand used as decorative
elements are bizarrely mundane. Incidentally, I'm told that a portion
of the recent Dungeons & Dragons flick was filmed at Kutna Hora." Link
RLD says, "Here are more photos of the Sedlec Ossuary. Very
interesting." Link.
JPA in Portugal writes, "After reading your entries about the churches
in Poland and near Prague, I should mention that in Portugal we also
have a couple of those. The most famous is called Capela dos Ossos, or
Bone Chapel. It is smaller than the ones you mention, but no less
interesting." Link
Joe Goldberg says, "Saw your post on the Kostnice bone ossuary, and I
have a few images of it as well, that capture the scale of what 40,000
dead dudes look like. See: Link,
Link,
And a coat of arms made of at least one of every bone in the human
body: Link."
BoingBoing pal Quinn says, "Even I have a set of pics from the ossuary
outside of Prague, with a couple of shots up on flickr: Link."
Mark Gallagher says, "I used to live near a cathedral in Germany that
was situated on the narrowest point of the Rhine river. This area was
a pretty popular spot for armed conflict throughout the ages even as
recently as WWII, when Patton made a fuss about pissing in the river
there when crossing on the way to Berlin. Anyway, the story goes that
the local cathedral always had kind of a shortage of hallowed ground
for burying people due to all the medieval bloodshed, and at one point
just resorted to warehousing a lot of the fallen soldiers to make way
for more traditional burials for VIPs. I can't seem to find my own
photography, but here's a link to a good one. I'm going to say that
it looks a lot more impressive in person, but here it is: Der Beinhaus in Oppenheim."
And reader Zizkov in
Czechoslovakia writes, "Read about the ossuary on BoingBoing. I
visited it last year and found it macabre and grotesque, though
perhaps not quite as grotesque as the gambolling snaphappy backpackers
(mainly American) who were there at the same time. I'm not exactly an
ancestor worshipper but I found the general visitor behaviour, uh,
distasteful. As I recall, entrance was 35 Kc and a photo pass the
same, that is, around $2.50 all in. Many individual opinions available
at virtualtourist.com
(search keyword: ossuary). For those interested in ossuarys, here is
another in Rome: Link<
/a>. 4,000 Capuchin friars (I passed this one by when in Rome). Merry
Christmas -- or whichever festivity you may be celebrating."
Thanks to all.
