- In 2023, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops issued a new document, "On Proper Disposition of Bodily Remains" on how we treat the human body after death. I reflected on this in my blog article "More on Respecting the Dead."
Three years after the above presentations, in April 2024, the Vatican Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith issued "Dignitas Infinita" discussing the concepts behind our understanding of human dignity and examples of the importance of human dignity in real life situations. Please see Part I and Part II of my reflection on "Dignitas Infinita" for more on this.
