Body cremation
What does cremation consist of?
The custom of cremation is very ancient. Various cultures of the past used to resort to this particular practice as a rite of purification of the soul from the body, preventing the latter from undergoing the process of decomposition through which it would have to pass. For centuries, the West saw cremation as immoral because it would not allow the resurrection of the body at the end of time, as predicted by the Holy Scriptures.
In reality, this concept has been judged as antiquated and irrelevant nowadays, even by the Church. Cremation is a means of honouring the deceased, which is accepted and common practice.
From a practical point of view, it is a very functional choice, since the cinerary urn takes up less room than a classic grave, saving space and ensuring a higher level of hygiene.
