When will we realize that burying dead bodies is a waste of space?

bodies should be burned. These cemetary's are some prime spots for commercial/residential property. Maybe even a public park.

Very pragmatic and appeals to my logic, but with the dead, there are also emotions involved. People want to be able to "visit" their departed loves ones. I don't really know how we will get around that. We will NEED to sometime...

yes, u have rasied a correct question
i think they will realise it when they don't have any space left to live.
that will be the day they will start burning bodies, because there is no other option left.

do you smell that?

Well since 95% of the united states has not been developed i think that it will be awhile.

Probably never. Not all bodies are buried mind you, some are cremated. The world is an enormous place, and by time it gets to the point where caskets are overloading it - that will be a very, very, very long time. Heck, we'll all probably be dead from something else by then.

A guy at a cemetary here a couple years ago got busted, because (I think) the cemetary ran out of room and/or the cremator furnace was broke down - something - anyway he was just stuffing these bodies anywhere he could! Mausoleums, tool sheds, etc! I think there were two dozen or so bodies around when they busted him!

So that's not a good idea! The fire thing is a good idea, and it's cheaper, and you can keep 'them' if you want!

Why do you want to build more s***?

Who care about that,I just want to see another golf course those stupid rotting corpse are taking up,after all one cant have enough of those now can we.

This country will never change,so it will be soon lost and we will just have to deal with what is left.

Have a nice day and play some golf.

I agree 100% in cremation.
Thanks for bringing it up.

and when will YOU realise that burning dead bodies causes AIR POLLUTION.
This is for SMOOVE- body neve rots in the ground if u really did sum good deeds n have read Holy Quran.

That's intriguing, I've never really thought about that, I mean the body just rots in the ground.

But do u know how many forest have been cut to burn the bodies? Do u know how much polution it caused? it is not the natural way i think? We should burry the bodies as it the natural harmless process.

It will have to come to that.I have made my final arrangments and will be cremated.I will have a funeral ,so my loved ones can say goodby and after cremation be put in an urn and my family can visit me there,I'm taking nothing from them.

The problem is not burying the bodies, it's HOW they are buried. If we would quit embalming people and putting them in airtight caskets to preserve them, there would be no problem. What do you want to preserve a dead person for anyway? It's not like your going to dig them up and look at them again someday. People should be put into a pine crate, not embalmed, and buried within 48 hours of death. This way, natural decomposition can take place like it was meant to.

Ever since the world began, folks would bury their dead. Can you imagine all those folks buried from the beginning of the world until now? The world is far to enormous for dead bodies to take up space. Eventhough, cremation may be cheaper, God doesn't approve of it. Burying the dead is honorable unto God. It's never a waste space.
