Why do people always choose black and white photographs for their funeral pictures, looking so sombre and formal in them?

For my putative funeral, I want to have a colour photo of me doing something wacky.

Catholic Church recruits more student exorcists

"Applications are invited for exorcism training at the Vatican's Rome university, the Athenaeum Pontificium Regina Apostolorum. The 10-week course includes sessions in exorcism rites, how to talk to the Devil, the tricks he uses to fight back and signs of the occult hidden in rock music and video games.

Students also attend classes in psychology so that priests can distinguish between "real cases" of satanic possession and illnesses such as schizophrenia."
