"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Burying Monks Under Unjust Laws
Submitted by Bradley Keyes on Fri, 2012-11-16 01:00
In the 1960s, Louisiana made it a crime to sell "funeral merchandise" without a funeral director's license. To get one, the monks would have to stop being monks: They would have to earn 30 hours of college credit and apprentice for a year at a licensed funeral home to acquire skills they have no intention of using. And their abbey would have to become a "funeral establishment" with a parlor accommodating 30 people, and an embalming facility even though they just want to make rectangular boxes, not handle cadavers.
