This article examines Israeli discourse on posthumous reproduction (PR) and the related cultural construction of "(un)natural" grief. Based mainly on an analysis of in-depth interviews with family members who submitted a request for PR, we examine the regimes of justification used by supporters and opponents of this technology. With both sides using the notion of "nature" to support their claim, the dispute centers on whether PR constructs a new social expression of grief (and hence should be seen as unnatural) or is only a reflection of an age-old grieving process (and is thus natural). We argue that by employing a twofold, novel/traditional justification, PR supporters aim to go one step further, from a symbolic continuity of the dead to a so-called real one. This progression highlights the flexibility of the natural category at the intersection of technology and culture and the abandonment of such binary distinctions as life/death and nature/culture. [posthumous reproduction, naturalization of technology, Israel, grief, continuing bonds]To have children for continuity is not egoism. It is not a sin. It is natural, it is a natural need, it is the nature of the world. And we are not trying to change the laws of nature.
