It might be (waaay) outside the scope of the usual discussions around here, but I don't know that it's pointless. I'm an atheist, and I'm totally fine with the idea that when I die, that's it, I'm as dead as any other organism. Still, though, I've got strong opinions about how I want to be "disposed of" when I die. Burial evokes strong emotions for me, and I can't for the life of me figure out why. Even in games like Fallout, I try not to leave corpses just lying in a river or in a shrub or something, even if it was somebody who was just trying to knife-murder me. I accept that it isn't a person anymore, like I said in my previous comment, but I still have a sentimental attachment to the... husk.
