An interfaith memorial service for Mr. Khashogi.

[YeshuaRedeemed]

We are gathered today before God to remember Mr, Khashogi for the precious human life he was, and mourn the loss of another human life. We affirm regardless of personal faith or politics that what happened exceeded the bounds of morality and reason. Now what I want everyone to do is pray for his soul to rest in peace, and that justice will prevail without returning hate for hate, or evil for evil, but love for love, and healing for healing. Atheists and humanists are also welcome to share a kind word. Out of respect for RF, I ask that we not proselytize, just to reflect on the loss of a human life.

A traditional interfaith blessing in Arabic: As salaam u alikum Illah ehebic. May God comfort and heal you.

 

[Jumi]

It was sad to hear of his last moments, but he is at peace now. I wish his family and friends can stay strong.

 

[Altfish]

From a Humanists point of view...

Not, how did he die, but how did he live?
Not, what did he gain, but what did he give?
These are the units to measure the worth
Of a man as a man, regardless of his birth.

OR

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.

So true.
