'Boil in a bag' funerals come to Britain: Scotland is the first part of the UK to introduce alternative technique that sees bodies dissolved and flushed down the drain
dailymailuk ^ | William Hunter

During a boil in the bag funeral, the body is wrapped in a biodegradable shroud, often made of silk or wool, and placed in a pressurised steel chamber.

The tank is then filled with a liquid made up of 95 per cent water and five per cent of an alkaline chemical such as potassium hydroxide.

The body is heated to 150°C (302°F) under pressure, which ensures that it does not actually 'boil'.

Over three to four hours, this replicates the natural processes of decomposition that would normally take decades to occur inside a coffin.

Finally, the resulting liquid is cooled, treated, and poured into the drains, where it is processed alongside normal wastewater.

Feels wrong. We came from the earth and should be returned.

Just a gut opinion, it feels like desecrating a body to me.

Wonderful.

Isn't this a similar method Epstein was accused of using? Dissolving his victims?

Comma placement will once again be crucial.

And suddenly, people realized that they hadn’t seen Keir Starman in a few days.

Hope they don’t plan to do this in DC anytime soon. The Potomac is messed up enough south of the American Legion bridge.

Anybody know where you can be buried in a simple pine box with no embalming or other postmortem frills?

This sounds like a great way for the Mafia to get rid of bodies.

They’ve been putting aborted babies in the garbage disposal ... and then the sewer ... for decades.

Leftists treat people as so much garbage.

Follow the whole cycle.
Dissolved body goes into the sewer.
Sewer water flows to the ocean.
Ocean evaporates forming clouds.
Clouds drop rain on the earth to sustain life.
Dissolved solids that don’t evaporate precipitate onto the ocean floor which is earth underwater.
Subduction moves that material into the earth’s crust.

So the body IS returning to the earth, just on different time scales.

Maybe the juice can be used as fertilizer.

I agree. Flushing someone’s remains down the sewer is a desecration. I don’t have a problem with the process, but they should find a better way to dispose of the water and waste that has some dignity about it.

I think Buffalo Bill would dissolve his victims in acid in the movie “Silence of the Lambs”.

Dissolved body goes into the sewer with all the human feces and urine, animal waste, and all the other filth... desecration

Our post-modern, materialist, and anti-human society now insists to save a few cents on the elimination of human bodies.

They must give you a final insult before you go - you will be treated as sewage when you are dead. You can’t even be allowed a modicum of respect to lie in the earth undisturbed.

That callousness doesn’t really effect the dead - because their spirit and soul are gone

but it DOES redound on to the living - because it shows the satanic-influenced think of the human person overall.

Do people HAVE to be dead to apply this amazing technology to them? Asking for a friend.

This is another “slippery slope” action that will lead to the return of satanic practices that we saw in the Epstein files, as well as the Pizzagate scandal and the Franklin cover up. This desecration of the human body is disguised under the rhetoric of environmental responsibility. Make no mistake: cremation and “liquidation” of human remains are steps to the Satanic goal of public human sacrifice.
