Grants Pass – Ancestors: Honoring Them, Becoming Them

Hybrid Event

October 29, 2023 @ 1:30 pm 2:30 pm EDT

Old black and white photos of three old people and a photo of elderly people holding children.

Ancestors – everyone has them, and (spoiler alert!) most of them are dead. Euro-American culture isn’t very good at death; we are so scared of death we’ve perverted the one day each year our ancestors set aside for remembering them to instead focus on giving children candy and expressing our fear with giant inflatable spiders. JD shares his journey from judging his ancestors to questioning his fitness to be one. As always, science plays a leading role, along with several other faith traditions and cultures.
