Your method of disposition?

[Libitinarius]

If you had a choice of your method of disposition, which would you choose and why? Would you choose cremation because it is inexpensive? Would you prefer to buried in the ground? Is this for a religious reason? Or do you plain not care (throw me in a garbage can)? One fact is certain, either we will choose or someone else will decide the fate of our body after death.

Im actually an organ donor, so when I die then I can save peoples lives and all that fun jazz. But when im dead, it really doesnt matter what happens to my body one way or the other

Cremation, and I want the ashes thrown somewhere nice.

Can honestly say that it doesnt matter to me. My family will most likely have me buried with them as most of my family is buried in the same cemetery. I did have a classmate die in highschool, who was cremated. His ashes were then put in vials and worn as necklaces by his friends i always thought that was unique albeit a bit gross.

That is very admirable of you, I have worked on several cadavers which were donated to science. Their selfless act has given students like me invaluable hands on experience, and also helped advance medical science. A lot of people don't know they can still have a service for their loved one even after their body has been donated to science. I for one like the thought of being buried in a casket constructed of plastic or copper, which will survive the elements almost indefinitely (h20, soil decaying elements). Not sure if I like the idea of my body being poked/prodded by students myself, but it does have a positive impact.

Shrugs. I don't mind being a organ donor alike lemmingllama there as I'd like to save lives in my own death. Though I would prefer my body stay intact, as in the "shell" of my remains to be exact, and properly buried with respect in a nice location somewhere in nice cemetery. It's not for a religious purpose or anything, but I want to establish a physical existence even upon death's door.

Besides, when I come back as a zombie, I won't have any my organs - and will have a valid excuse to eat brains and rip out other's hearts/intestines for my own.

I prefer to donate my body science. I always think of making mankind better. The place where I live the preferred way is cremation and hardly any person donates their body or even donate their organs. It's something to do with going to heaven if your body is cremated and ashes are thrown in one of the holy rivers. Since I'm an atheist I don't believe in hell or heaven and do prefer to be given of to science. Moreover I've done and will be doing good deeds enough to go to heaven even if it exists.

Did you by any chance watch That 70's Show earlier before making this thread? I just think it's ironic because I was watching it earlier and it was the one where Red almost gets crushed by a tree and his funeral flashes before him. I have to agree with one of his best lines: "When my time comes, I want to be buried face down so that anyone who doesn't like me can kiss me ass" lol So yes, I want to be buried. I don't want my dead corpse saving anyone's life, unless they were someone I loved.

[DrumRoll]

Don't care; just has to be cheap:D

[Esalena]

Well.... I would love to think that by the time I'm dead my boyfriend would have been my husband for a long time so that way I could just be burried next to him if he happened to die first. If not then my corpse would just be saving the plot right next to it. As for whether he'd agree well that's up to him... he is a bit bi-polar sometimes... >.>

Er, I use to worry a lot about what happens after I die, like I should worry about my body as if I still have to protect it. That's not true. After seeing others go, the body just becomes the coil... I guess I leave it up to those who have to bury me; I would be horrified to see my dead relatives just carted off to some science labs. The funeral is really for the people who are still alive; not for the one who has died. If in the event nobody was there to bury me, I wouldn't have to mind about where it ends up, it would just be my body.
