I know that some people (Christians) say that if you get cremated then you won't be able to have a resurrected body. I don't buy that, because if your house catches fire and you burn up, it's gonna end up the same as it would have if you were cremated.

I understand the comfort aspect of the wake and the family coming together to say one last goodbye, and get one last look at the dead corpse. But in my case, if they want to have a little get together, they can. They just won't be paying a mortician to display my dead corpse as the centerpiece.

To me, it's more important that I leave the world in the most responsible way that I can imagine. Mourners can celebrate that, have a good time and go home. 🙂 Thanks for adding your views!
