. For your final Discussion assignment, you will briefly compare two different spiritual/cultural traditions with regards to funeral practices. You may compare two randomly selected spiritual/cultural traditions, or you may compare something to your own spiritual/cultural beliefs. Feel free to share personal stories and experiences if you feel comfortable. You may use the readings for this module for ideas, but feel free to look elsewhere for information if you have a particular spiritual tradition/culture in mind that is not covered in the readings. Your submission can be in the form of audio, video, or text. Your submission will require the following:
Identify two spiritual or cultural traditions you will be comparing
Summarize how your selected spiritual/cultural traditions approach funeral practices
Briefly compare and contrast funeral practices between your selected traditions
