Now that we have refrigeration there's no need for "embalming". My family's religious tradition calls for _no_ embalming and burial in an un-adorned, un-finished pine box. This will also save people a lot of money that's simply wasted and better spent on the living.
- hyperpape 8y agoThere are natural burials available in most states in the continental US, and if I can arrange it for myself, I will (once you are married, it is no longer a one person decision). I'm not a purist, and think a rough-hewn headstone makes sense to me, but I can't imagine that a natural burial somewhere many miles outside of town would be a contamination risk.
