There’s nothing unusual about knowing better than to dig up dead bodies and desecrate them. Even you must have made the acquaintance of someone in your lifetime who would resist digging up the local cemetery to frolic in the remains. Is it possible that you’ve never met anyone who showed an ounce of respect to the dead? Surely you jest.

How did you come to the belief that the scientific study of ancient life is the moral equivalent of “frolicking with the dead?” No, I don’t know anyone who finds archeology “sick”.

I wouldn't go into a contemporary cemetery and dig for two reasons.
1. They are usually private property.
2. It would cause distress to the living friends and relatives of the dead persons.
We don't maintain cemeteries for the benefit of the dead. They are for the comfort of the living, to help them come to terms with death. It sounds like death is a subject you have some issues with.
