Cremated, after taking every organ/tissue/whatever that is need from me of course.

Re: Would you rather to be cremated or buried?
Buried. I wouldn't want to be reduced to a pile of ashes, nor could I do that to a loved one. It's just creepy to think that the cremated don't even exist anymore. I know I'm in the minority, but whatever.

This. When I visit my mother's grave, at least I know she's there.

Re: Would you rather to be cremated or buried?
I'd like to be cremated, but in my area very few people are cremated and traditionally people are buried so I suppose I will end up to be buried.....

Re: Would you rather to be cremated or buried?
I'm an organ donor- but after that I want to be cremated.
I'm all about energy and I like the idea of my particles being released into the atmosphere, just seems a lot better than being stuffed in a box buried to be maggot food..lol

Re: Would you rather to be cremated or buried?
On a more serious note, I'd prefer to be cremated since I'm claustrophobic

I think it depends on religious/philosophical viewpoints. Some of us don't want to exist after we die in any shape or form. Some of us believe in a permanent existence (heaven/hell) after death. And some just don't care.
Aside from all religious mandates, I personally don't like the idea of being in a permanent place like being buried or even my ashes in an urn.
