(38,206 posts)So many laws keep us from deciding what we REALLY want done to our bodies after we die. If a serial killer gets us, especially one who likes to hack up bodies, we have no choice, because serial killers don't follow those laws. But, if we die in a situation where the authorities are involved right away, we still don't get to decide. Out of all the choices we have in NC(burial in a Christian graveyard and cremation), I guess I want cremation. If no one else gets there first, though, let the wildlife live off my body.
Vultures would be the ultimate for my body, because I have always said if reincarnation is real, I wouldn't mind being a vulture in another life. They get to soar like they do, don't have to kill their own food, and nobody wants to capture them to make pets out of them. So, they are truly free, it seems.
I just hope my death is not at the hands of a serial killer. There is one operating in my area, even though the police in my county won't let it be mentioned in the paper. The county next door did allow it to be mentioned and most of the bodies they have found have been in my county.
