So burial versus cremation is the topic?

That touches religion and personal beliefs, which can be as sensitive, if not more, than politics...

Anyway, not discussing beliefs of how "afterlife" really is, and how we should be prepared for it -

For me personally, I will donate everything (meaning body parts) that is of use to science. Either for transplants or for scientific research, though I would like to see transplantation be given the preference. With the rest - burn it, and make at least a decent fertilizer (though this is illegal in Germany - so I will live (no - be dead) with the drawback of being in an urn (non recyclyble <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />) in either earth or sea. Both of which would still be - unnatural).
