De Young
Today I learned about king Tut. The De Young museum ambassadors came and talked to us. They told how mummification is done and I would like to share it. First, you take the brain out with a long wire up the nose. Second, you cut a small hole in the waist and you take out the organs except the heart. Third, you finally get to wrap it up with fine bandages and tissues. Forth, you put it in a golden case and put small artifacts with it. Last, you put on a death mask on it and you bury it. It is quite intresting I would say, don't you?

Hender, it is good that you didn't say it is scary. I was scared about it before but now I even have dissected so many cadavers. What the Bible tells you is that the human body is just the temporal container for the spirit when people is alive; when people die, body is purely material because the spirit leaves. But we still need to respect the body because it represents a person and the spirit, that is why the Egiptian wanted to make mummy. You are not talking about De Young, don't you think you should change the title?
