WTF?
I have already told my progeny that when my time comes, put me in a cardboard box, pour on some petrol and light a match.
Why? Because as I told them, I will be dead. I will not be there. I will be gone forever. I will not see any of it. There will be no "me" at that point. So what's the point? Waste all those thousands on a fancy funeral? For what? Why would anyone waste that kind of money on gently cooling meat?
In fact, even the theists must admit that my so-called "soul" has gone someplace else by then. So they have no leg to stand on in this.
Why on earth do people do this?
It annoys the shit out of me.
They do it because:
1. Most people are religious.
2. The largest religious franchise is Christianity.
3. Christianity is a death cult.
