Eco burial

Post by Hardcoregirl »

I saw this a few days ago on CNN and meant to pass it on-

Now, some of you may say "damn it hardcoregirl you damn dirty hippie"...but I think its cool.

Embalming is just silly..and gross.

Screw the mortuary industry!

We are all atheists about most of the gods that humanity has ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.

I still like the idea of getting burned up after whatever usable parts are harvested. With predicted population booms, those 15 x 15 plots will go fast.

Actually was talking to someone about death rituals that included a big bonfire type thing (pyree? Spelling check?) and the ashes going into a stew and such in order to pass along the persons wisdom in life.

I hate that saying: "You can't have your cake and eat it too."

Because what's the point of having cake when you aren't able to savour and enjoy every tastey morsel it has to offer you.....
