Aren't cemeteries kinda crowded??

[Mister Obvious]

I feel like I've posted this before, and let's be real, I probably have...

But I just think human remains need to be burned and cemeteries need to be done away with.

It's hella archaic and it might have been okay (JUST "okay") when the population was like 6 billion less than it is now but...

At this point it's just getting out of hand.

And when I say "burned" I don't mean cremated.

Cremation is pretty unnatural, it necessitates a degree of heat that just doesn't happen in nature.

At least not in any safe or accessible way.

I mean just like...

Funeral pyre style.

This seems like it's contradicting itself, but at least it's relevant:

It's unlikely that environmental concerns figured highly, though Defra today warns that incinerating bodies outdoors can release particulate matter, including mercury, carbon dioxide, dioxins and hydrogen chloride.

I don't know how it is in other parts of the country but I know in a certain area of Texas
they've already started buried them two-deep in one plot! Not sure how long they've been
doing this but I found it to be kinda strange. Obviously running out of room.

I agree with the fire send-off. Once they're gone, they're gone.

They used to throw people into volcanoes long ago.

Cemeteries are stupid. It's just human superstition. Why go visit a hole in the ground, with your loved ones rotted corpse in it?

What makes humans what we are is that we do things that aren't natural. Is space travel natural?

There are just much healthier ways to approach the situation. If humans were in touch with spirituality on a mass level, they would revere the symbolically transformative process of burning the corpse. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. It could be beautiful.

Space travel is less unnatural than the way we deal with dead bodies...



Humans are explorers and it makes sense they would see space as a place to explore, once they've gotten beyond exploring the planet.

What irks me about space travel is the fact that humans haven't even explored the depths of the oceans yet. This planet has NOT been thoroughly explored, and the push into space is a touch premature in my opinion.

I've written about this before...

TL;DR...

Space travel is limited because all solar systems are within an impenetrable "bubble"... travel outside of the solar system in vehicles simply isn't possible.

Any lifeforms within a solar system are dependent upon the particles that make up their sun. Incompatible particles couldn't exist in other solar systems.

The only way interstellar travel would be possible is to find a solar system that matches the particles of your own, and it could be argued that like snow flakes or fingerprints, no two are alike enough to allow for it.

You'd have to have some type of particle transport machine, not one that physically travels through space.

I've discussed the ins and outs of this as well...

Bottom line...

Space travel is possible, but in a vehicular approach, it would be limited to local travel mining asteroids or exploring the surface/drilling into the subsurface of other planetary bodies. That's about it.

I agree 100 percent with you MO.

I've said this my whole life too!!

sitting around watching vultures rip apart your dearly beloved , I wonder if those relatives were trying to guess which body part was being fought over

you and your predictive logic. you said hotels should or would one day be housing and the industrial use of them was a waste. 

now they ready to sell for cheap...no business in hotels. government seizure, turn into housing units. 

cemetaries are just old jedi mind trick marketing and old. nothing scientific about wasting time and energy and space. 

burn 'em all. fuck the coffin, the wake...all the pay for bullshit with wailing and boohoos and just get on living. 

Sooooo correct mo. I'm like...brain juicing thinking about the brain juice in your walnut looking perfect little organ.

You are allowed to do a funeral pyre, but you need to get a permit.
And obviously not leave half burned corpses in the river like in India.

Just chuck their carcass in the local river. The catfish will take care of the rest.

people don't listen to visionaries. they listen to banks. sMaRt woman...

The entire funeral industry itself it a marketing sham and trick to get you
out of your money with a made up 20KUSD tradition. 

Burn em. Fuck the noise.
