20 April 2011. A Point of Unity… Holy Week in Spain… Brotherhood “Cristo de la Buena Muerte”

In Zamora (Zamora Province. Castile and León Autonomous Region), in Northern Spain, members of the brotherhood “Cristo de la Buena Muerte” (Christ of the Good Death) make a penitential Holy Week procession. Lest their title be misunderstood, it means that the members believe that Christ is the enabler and sponsor of a “good death”, of a “good” passing into eternity… they don’t glorify or worship death by any means. This is obvious to all grounded Christians, but there’s so much contamination from pseudo-Christian Sectarian sources nowadays that I had to be more precise. The members are hooded so as not to excite sinful pride in the participants… that, too, is obvious to the grounded observer.
