Maybe Brits need to walk their dogs in the Muslim grave yards.
The only one in the entire world.
So I guess I need to convert to Latvian Orthodox to get the girl, then to Judaism for the jokes, then to islam for the weekend burials.
Just so I don’t get buried next to a dentist, I guess.
You’d better ice that knee, quick.
England already mooselimb?
When a Muslim dies in our community, the men of the faith show up at the funeral home and wash the body to prepare it for burial. They then take the body to a secret location and bury it. I asked the funeral guy why it was a secret and he said “No casket”.
I have no sympathy for them. They brought and encouraged the sobs to go there. Then they give in to them, kiss their asses, and worship them. And despite all this, the second that the muslims can kill them and get away with it, they will.
Unfortunately, in my opinion, the same thing is happening over here. Inch by inch they are pushing forward.
Even today the fools and idiots are doing everything in their power to elect one President of the U.S.
“in line with the rules of the Islamic faith that the dead must be buried as soon as possible.”
Hear that, Osama?
Muslims are quite agreeable when they comprise only 1% of the population. He will sing a different tune when they reach 20%.
Or let their pigs root in the graveyard.
What are you? An anti-Dentite?
This will happen here in the US because we too like the British Empire and the Roman Empire before them have lost the will, and probably the capacity to safeguard our borders. Sadly neither candidate will address this issue. British sharia ‘community courts’ featured here on FR a few days ago is another indicator of how the British have lost their national identity. It should be a warning to us. But, it may be too late.
But Abdool Gooljar, president of the Sheffield branch of the Society of Islam, said the council should try to meet the needs of every resident of the city.

Well no actually. Contrary to popular belief, most Muslims are as reasonable as the next person, it’s just a minority of crackpots who give them a bad name.....

It’s just a HUGE minority; they are culturally dominant in the West Bank, Gaza, Syria, Jordan, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Muslim Nigeria, Oman, Libya, Egypt... But yes, it’s true that the more peaceable Muslim countries get much let press and export their ideologs more commonly. But even Indonesia, India, Turkey, Morocco, Algeria, etc. have their sizeable Islamofascist populations.
Looks like the Brits are suffering from premature capitulation.
Let me get this straight. If a mus. dies in your area the family can just come in to the funeral parlor, put the dead body in their car and drive off? No one ask where are you taking the body? What are you going to do with it?
Can Catholics do this? Can we drive off with granny’s body in the back of the VW to places unknown?
Most places allow the family to care for, and in many places, bury the body. The tradition of a funeral home is actually pretty recent in American history. Prior to a few generations ago, nearly everyone would have cared for their own dead. In many places around the world, they still do.
Many Jewish people take care of their own dead, using something called the chevra kadisha, a burial society.
See: Bereavement in Judaism *pops*
I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think that a coffin is required in a Jewish burial, and if one is used, it must be very plain and simple. Step 6, under "Preparing the body" says that "The coffin (aron) (if there is a coffin) is prepared by removing any linings or other embellishments. Emphasis mine.
"Green" burials don't use coffins, or use cardboard or coffins made from scrap or recycled materials. Some of the "green" cemeteries don't allow embalming, iirc. If they don't use a coffin, they use a shroud.
An interesting book on the subject is Jessica Mitford's The American Way of Death.
