Ressurection of the Dead

This was a good blog question – would you prefer to be cremated or buried after you die?

Of course, what I expected to see in the comments did happen – someone said they believe in the Ressurection of the Dead, and would rather be buried.

Let me point something out to you:

Nearly 80% of the Bible is a parable or a euphamism. Most of it is not to be taken literally. The Ressurection of the Dead is definitely about being risen again from death by the Savior during His second coming. But it’s a spiritual ressurection. Should that come in another 1,000 or 2,000 years from now, you’ll be naught but dust anyway. Your bones, too.

Doesn’t the Bible say, “Ashes to ashes, dust to dust“? So what really is the difference anyway?

There is none.
