Steve McAlpine looks at the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II as a metaphor for a much bigger change in society.

The death of the Queen was supposed to be the final nail in the coffin of a public acknowledgement of something transcendent, a God who orders the world. But instead what we’re finding is a longing for something more - something more than a materialist view of the world, or, as one writer put it, “something magical” to fill the void.

If we're going to have a future without a personal monarch, Steve suggests, we're going to have to find something worthy to put on the throne.
