Re:Want a Viking Funeral? Only State That Allows It Is Colorado by williamscales on Thursday January 12, 2023 @06:05PM (#34361524)
Well, I think there is some level of regulation that should be in place. For instance, if I live on a small property next to another small property, it would have a pretty negative impact on me if my neighbor decided they wanted to leave their dead relatives in the open on a corner of the property abutting mine.

Obviously that’s an extreme scenario. I generally agree with you that burial is over-regulated (c.f. human composting) but there should be some ground rules in place.

More or less negative than it would be if your neighbour was leaving animal remains instead of dead relatives?

You generally can’t do that either.
