How Are Atheists Buried or do funerals?
 

I mean... it doesn't matter to them right? So, their bodies should be just dumped in a land fill?

funerals don't have to be religious :1orglaugh

I would prefer to be cremated. Why would someone want their body disrespected just because they dont believe in God? It's simply a matter of decency. I also don't shit on my carpets or throw my garbage in my living room. Believe it or not, I didn't need religion to tell me that is not right. Just common sense.

Sky burial ...

Their body disrespected? LOLz. but but Ur dead. Nothing matters anymore. U won't know.

While your OP was rather ignorant (I am noticing a theme today), you kind of redeemed yourself with this one.

Do you have any family? Do you think your kids want to see your corpse lying in a ditch? Or anyone else for that matter? Are you seriously that stupid? It's also a matter of sanitation. Go for a swim in the Ganges with the dead bodies sometime.

Also funerals aren't some stupid religious ceremony for atheists. It's about friends and family getting together to celebrate your life and memories one last time. Then having your corpse disposed of in a sanitary way. Not sure what is hard to understand about that.

but but, ur body is the same as any dead road kill's body . Your kid's won't see ur body in landfill cause it will be buried under a pile of dirty diapers from a senior center.

In the civilized parts of the world they pay people to remove roadkill because it's unsightly. See the trend here? So people who are not religious automatically have no respect for the dead or the memory of the dead? Congrats, your argument is as childish and nonsensical as I would expect from a religious nutjob.

Funerals are for the living. Most atheists would just want whatever brings their loved ones comfort.

It's really no different than when a family pet dies. Do you dispose of the corpse in a respectful way, or do you just throw the body out in the backyard and let mice and crows pick at it? It's about being respectful to the memory of the person or animal. I'm pretty sure your dog never attended church or prayed to lord jesus, but most people arent going to throw the body out in a bag full of dirty diapers.

Burned like the heathen Kings of old

Just because they are atheists, doesn't mean they don't have rituals too....
funerals don't have to be a religious ritual, they can be a farewell ritual or a remembrance ritual

You simply celebrate their life at their funeral, not need to get religious.

OP must be <15

OP = good troll post.

Personally, I will have Buddy skinned and turned into a throw rug. He's going to look good in front of the fireplace.

News Flash! They were burying people before Christianity. There are cemetaries around here that are owned by the township! Friends and family can deliver the eulogy!

I prefer to deal with death by frantically thinking about other things

Me too.

My father died when I was a baby, and his grave site was a rather sad place for me. I don't need my kid to go through that. I want to be cremated and my ashes scattered at Waikiki beach. This way my kid can make a vacation out out of it instead of kneeling at a grave and feeling sad.

Well, it's OBVIOUSLY a known fact that atheists get shot out of a cannon and filled with fireworks for their burial. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I like Louis CKs idea of leaving his body to necrophiliacs.

i kunt a4d 2 die... :(

Graham Chapman's funeral is a good example

I am not going to have much say in the matter, all I ask is they make damn sure I am dead...

I always think cremation, but it might be greener to return my nutrients to the ground - I am sure I have heard of green funerals where they use cardboard coffins and bury you in a forest - Something like that would be nice.....

Feed the homeless.

Don't led good food go to waste.

HAHAHAHA!!!
:thumbsup

Atheists don't think that there is a soul in the body that goes to a place to be with god or devil once a person dies. So therefor we sorta beleive that the body is all that's left once we breath no more. Our energy goes back to where we borrowed it from.

It's all about respect. I would rather not have a christian mortician fucking my dead body even though my conciousness is no longer in it.
I would rather that my body is recycled by the planet in the way it was before civilization.

On that note. All you religious fuckheads are the problem.:321GFY

Logic and reason are what's needed by humanity on this planet. Not decisions by religious people who think they are going to a better place when they die and that this place is disposable!!!:error

Atheists are not the problem, they are the solution.

+1 here. Unless you subscribe to one of the few religions who think your pets are going to heaven. NOT CHRISTIANS BTW!!! (and then what separates your pets from the cows you eat, do you have to look at your dinner in heaven looking back at you for eternity?)

I am an aheist and I have always treated my pets with repsect when they passed away. Had ceremonies etc.... Out of love and respect....

I enjoy the fact that people seem to think that we atheists are such a bloody mystery.

My will states that I am to be cremated and flushed down the toilet.

Dumbass :thumbsup

Cementarys basically are landfill

I would like to be fed to starving animals.

so you want to be ditched in river or some similar shit after you die?
