If a dead human body is just rotting meat, it doesn’t matter who its “owner” was, or who he claimed to be, etc.


True. Unless, of course, it was Jesus - or Laserus.

BTW, I believe all believers are “the saints”.

What interested me in this article was that I am a direct descendant of Richard III, but the conservation has led me in another direction. I agree with all that you have said, but was wondering what your take on cremation for a Born Again Christian?

The living Christians are simply the little “s” saints. The Christian believers ONLY get the “S” after their passing.

Have you never heard of incorruptible bodies? Probably St. Bernadette is the most famous one.

There are degrees of saints. The word means “holy one.”
