As a Christian, I passionately hate the practice of cremating human bodies. God’s people should hate and reject cremation for many reasons, including the following:
—Cremation is a horrifically unnatural and unfitting approach to the final disposition of the bodies (especially the bones) of our dead loved ones.
—Christian acceptance of cremation is teaching God’s people to devalue the sanctity of the bones of their dead loved ones.
—The proper disposition of human bones is not to burn and smash them in the horrifically gruesome and dishonoring practice of cremation.
God’s people should not cremate their loved ones!
