Like I said someplace, and as should be evident from, well, just about everything in this blog, I’m childish.

Honestly, what kind of spiritual organization wouldn’t provide such a service for its grieving members?! Motives! Phaw, you heartless cynic!

I think I have my first (of a total of five) exams in November 29, and the last on December 14. There’s still one exam I haven’t checked the date of yet, but it’d surprise me greatly if it was outside of that period. Hopefully, it won’t collide with any of my other exams. Hmm. I really should check that out as soon as possible… :\

“Meaning my Christmas-break will be less than a month long, meaning the plane-tickets give me very much less time per kroner than they should. ;_;”

Aaaw. My most sincere condolences. Not that it’ll do you any good, but still.

“Oh, and yes, the Church could be a right bastard like that. I mean, how DARE it take advantage of resources that according to its own world-view served no function anyway? Such horrilbe, horrible victimless crime…”

Yep, they were pretty much self-serving bastards. Convincing self-serving bastards, too, as they (a) was correct about the concept of burial goods being pagan, (b) in time managed to convince the population of this, and (c) also talked them into giving them much of their land when they died.

Sigh. The Medieval Church was so much more fun for us cynics who love to throw suspicion on their motives. It’s so much harder to do that to these contemporary Lutherans.
