I think the commercialization of death more than anything. It just strikes me as being very much contrary to the respect that was offered to the deceased throughout the scriptures, as when Joseph left instructions for his body to be returned from Egypt to Canaan, or when the men of Israel walked all night to recover King Saul’s beheaded body from the wall where the Philistines had pinned it.
I respect that. I guess I always considered my “dead” self much as a shell. Worm food if you will. Mad kudos to you for doing what you know is right.
