Do you think it's weird/wasteful that Western people waste valuable precious material like various types of wood and such to bury their dead in a container?

Most Westerners get cremated these days it seems like.

If i die i want to be launched into space. I hope they can do it as quick as they can before i rot.

My dead, cold body will drift across the infinite blackness and glittering stars and galaxy and all of cosmos relatively intact because i probably wont rot in vaccum. Just frozen. And maybe i will crash into a planet, maybe i will meet an alien and maybe i will be a falling star or whatever. The possibilities are endless

Same question to westerners as well, have you ever questioned that aspect of the culture you were raised in?

I actually like this idea.

Hopefully my time comes when this is feasible.

Holy shit I never knew I wanted this

Anyway, we burn our dead, but I don't care if you bury them

If I die I want to be put in a space probe that goes to venus

I want to spend the rest of my death in that place where no one is going to dig up my grave and steal my stuff.

You mean you want your carcass to be picked at by vultures?

Its even more understandable when you learn that this isn't just a western practice. The Chinese and the Japanese among others also traditionally bury their dead in coffins.
