Kassidy90: WTF! I had a dream dat I was cremated today, nw I log on to NL and am seeing stuff about it...God wats going on

Meaning of dream: Give your life to Christ, sharp,sharp

lynpetra: Whatever that is done to my body after death is definitely non of my business .Cos my spirit go dey drink champyne for heaven by then

ERROR: there are NO breweries in God's heaven!

Fashola shud av set an example by using hs dead family member as an example or d spesker family member,so others can follow.

movado19: I am really disappointed and sad that this bill was passed in. As for Fashola, I do not know if he is a Muslim, but even if he is not, cremation is very much frowned upon in Christianity and Judaism. Speaking from the perspective of a Muslim, this practice is a SIN and Islam says that the fire is used solely by Allah (God) to punish,so no man should use it against another man. If only people would learn more about the things that a dead body experiences after death, then they would not be quick to say that this practice is a welcome idea. In short words, the dead FEEL PAIN TOO!

Thank you for educating us on the religious perspective. Those are all imported though. What does the native custom say about dead bodies?

Who said its a new Bill, OPC has been cremating people in Lagos since time immemorial

Thanks everyone for your posts, I will never cease to come to NL to have some good laugh
