Are you very concerned what happens to your body after death?
No, not at all. In fact I want my body donated to science rather than put in a hole in the ground. Well, after all usable organs have been removed.
I'm not going to be there, I don't care what happens.
No, I'm more concerned with what happens to it before I die.
I'm trying to think of a way so that my kids can retrieve my skeleton. One of my ideas is to go out into the desert and die in a fine mesh cage so the ants can pick my bones but keep the coyotes and buzzards away.
I always wanted it to rot where it falls, but society and shit...
That reminds me of that old show on HBO, at the end when Pullo dumps the chick that killed his wife out in the street and it pans back to show her still rotting in the street some time later.
@Minta79 not familiar with it
@NothinnXpreVails Rome. That was a pretty major detail to leave out... The show was called Rome.
No. By then its too late. I want what is called a green burial. That means that the body is wrapped in a cloth (canvas) shroud and buried fairly shallowly. This allows the body to be reclaimed by bacteria, insects, and other natural organisms. Several states allow in select cemetaries.
I am not concerned in the slightest about what happens to my body after I die. I just don't want anyone to be inconvenienced by it.
All I would be concerned about is that my usable organs and other tissues and body parts would be given to someone else who deserves and needs them. Or, if nothing else, that my body be used for scientific purposes. Other than that, I really do not care what happens to this shell when I die. I will no longer have need for it.
Of course... Since I am the only one that Rented it in this life... I don't want it to be consumed by chihuahuas or urban cannibals. Only property I ever acknowledged... When I die... My body belongs to My Mistress... The Sea.
I think they say every seven years each cell in our bodies are replaced. If so, our several earlier bodies are already strewn, bit by bit, down the trails we have walked. I don't there's anything special about what turns out to be our final body (except that parts of it may be donated).
I want to be cremated and tossed out on a windy day facing the wind
