and thats the center of the shrubbery maze, it comes down to belief or not.....like many of our current issues.......either you believe in god and an after life or you dont and that pretty much determines on how you view most topicsPumpkin_Man wrote:3. The person who dies DOES NOT CEASE TO EXIST. I know some of you believe that happens, but I just can't. Sorry, but it goes against every fiber in my being. It also goes against every fiber in my being to disrespect the dead in such a manor, especialy when there are all kinds of plastic skelitons for sale that look exactly like the real thing. One of the "Corporal Acts of Mercy" is to burry the dead. Human remains are "temples" and should be treated as such.

Personally I agree with Mike on this, heck, I spent 2yrs on the phone calling places in LA and eventually flew to California, paid $50 and got my grandfathers ashes from a "lost and found" vault where they had been stashed for 27yrs because after he died no one cared what happened to them and never did anything with them, so in a vault they went. I couldnt stand the idea of them being lost so I found them and brought them home with me.....
