Why Is Funeral Necessary After One Dies?
- Thread starter Stompiss
- Start date
The short answer is this - It is not necessary at all.
So, why does every dead person have a funeral?
Tons of reasons but I'll just list a few:
1) Pay last respects. Now, this is strange. If you had been respected whilst you were alive, that should be good enough. If you hadn't got respected whilst you were alive, what's the point of this last respect? Gee, I don't get it.
2) Last spiritual rites (whatever the religion). I think this is also pointless. whatever good or bad you did in your life, there's no way you can change that. Not even the last rites. This is just a hope on the part of the living that the soul would be cleansed in preparation for next life (next life of cos means differently for different religions)
3) To collect condolence $$. I can understand this is necessary for the poorer families but then again, if there's no funeral there's not much expenses.
4) Create business for funeral parlors, monks, caterers, etc,etc. This is big business so I don't think it will disappear anytime soon.
5) Family and friends gathering. A lot of people actually enjoy attending such gatherings. It's party time!
Oh yah.. And I thought you left for good? Why are you back again? Can't bear to leave your power points and infractions right? What shameless bitch, dun preach people about power when you also can't let go of it >>>>LOL<<<<
aiyoh... some folks answered this in the net before.
in the past, when a person dies, their relatives wanted to be sure the deceased is really dead before burial. so the body was kept under watch for a few days, and that was the beginning of the first funeral.
later evolved into a tradition where friends and relatives could come pay their last respects.
So if they find out that the deceased is not really dead, do they cancel the funeral and demand a refund?
lianbeng says: that's just another culture practice lah!
Lianbeng, the Tibetan culture makes them chop the body into peices.
The Parsis (originally from Persia (Iran) would usually bring the shrouded corpse and hang it upside down over a deep well.
The birds of prey will then descend on the corpse and finish it up.
The bones fall into the well.
Some other people even release the corpse into the sea to be devoured by the marine species.
In ancient China, the rich people even engage the services of proffessionals wailers (criers) at funerals.
Is depend on race and religious and personal feeling.
Funeral for generally is sending one dead person to another world and respect the RIP in one ceremony hopefully the dead person will be happy and peacefully find another peaceful world.
From my knowledge, available in S'pore. Just need to pay.
Not necessary to have funeral for that smear of shit on sole of shoe LKY when he mati.
How to?
The rest of us will be so busy yam senging and singing and dancing on tabletops and streets that no one will bother to go even if to spit on his fucking face or shit on top.
The vicious bastards in PAP with no fucking moral compass in the first place will be taking knives out to hoot and hooot each other to get at those hundreds of billions bastard LKY stole from all of us
Ah Loonie will be too scared and shitting in his pants to bother
WE ALL HOPE SMEAR OF SHIT ON SOLE OF SHOE WILL DIE VERY PAINFULLY AND VERY SLOWLY BEFORE HE GO UNDER THE GHOULS AND DEMONS THAT WILL RAPE AND SCREW HIM INTO ETERNITY

Count me in.. But don't give too much.. $1 can liao..
Tat one is called pocong.
Seriously, have u ever personally seen one?
So its called Pocong?
Not yet.. But our Indon maid ever showed us a You Tube video of this decomposed corpse in tattered funeral shroud.. Happened in Indonesia when they recorded the ghost on a HP..
Why? Simple. When deceased crossed over to the other side, he would know who had sent him and who did not send him on last journey. Those who took his money and did not send him on last journey, better watch out.
There are many cases whereby the dead roses during the funeral. So it is a last hope !
1. live like a dog and dies like a king
2. live like a king and die like a dog
If u are 1 then your descendant find you worth something to give you a funeral and grateful you live like a dog to make them (descendant) live like a king.
If u are 2 then your descendant find you a scumbag you made them (descendant) live like a dog while you live like a king. There is no funeral for you.
