I think you've made it through the middle ages. So I assume you bathe? Good Christians didn't for the longest time. (Those pagan Romans bathed, and they were eeeeevil).
So, do you insist that your body be buried whole? No cremation? No parting out?"
"Feel free to answer them if you wish."
I Wish...
I have a problem comparing a Christian’s sincere belief in the sanctity of life to the church’s evolved teaching re. bathing, cremation, and blood and organ donation… I agree with eleni121 and am not stuck anywhere on the "spectrum of changing absolute truth;" I doubt that she is either. Absolute truth can be found only in our personal relationship with God; not through any one church’s adaptive doctrine.
BTW, of course it is still a sin to defile one’s Spirit-occupied body. Does that include blood and organ donation? Altho the Church may have changed its position here, the Ancient of Days long ago declared that greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. Surely that is inclusive of these “gifts” to others. Donating the body of a diminutive being with unlimited life potential? Different story.
Agreeing to Disagree, my friend.
Null and void is throwing everything but the kitchen sink into his painfully ignorant and logically upside down arguments for fetal cell exploitation by the researchers from hell.
He's a red herring hoot.
