Funeral of Princess Diana

I think Terry’s article points to what could be one of the most unresolvable ethical dilemmas we humans are heir to. On the one hand we think that regardless of our level of success or failure, there should always be a ‘right answer’ – the right thing to think, the right thing to do. But in a context like this maybe there isn’t. I’m not thinking about funerals in particular but about ‘standing together’ in general.
