Abstrakt

The author contends there has been subtle secularization of funeral rites in Scotland, with clergy-dominated funerals and Universalist views. He demonstrates how ministers formerly seldom conducted funerals. A study of current liturgical books gives the official church funeral view, with discussion for whom the worship exists. The key phrases 'soul' and 'resurrection' are reviewed. He provides the basis and results of a local questionnaire to ascertain what people believe and desire of funerals, and concludes that there is indeed a secularizing in both beliefs and expectations of funerals. Future congregational and larger strategies are postulated.
