[quote:Anonymous Coward 78016545:MV80MTU4NzY2Xzc1NTYzNjYyX0IxMUQxMjIz] [quote:MaybeTrollingUAgain:MV80MTU4NzY2Xzc1NTU3MTYxX0U1OTlCODlC] After death, your whole body begins to rot. [b]In a couple months, only your bones are left and a couple years, only dust.[/b] The matter is recycled and will end up feeding plants which will eventually be fed to another living creature and the cycle is repeated. There is nothing beyond that. There is only this life, this chance, this one opportunity. Don't waste it waiting for a possible reward. Make the difference now, now is the time you have. [/quote] Wrong, it takes longer for a body to completely decompose. Depending on your latitude and climate, it could take anywhere from a couple of years to hundreds/thousands of years. There are still deceased bodies from 1700/1800s Arctic shipwrecks and voyages, almost intact in permafrost. Mammoth-flesh has been found in permafrost almost intact too. In Northern Europe we have to wait a minimum 20-30 years before a grave can be recycled, this has a lot to do with the corpses not decaying fast enough. In parts of Scandinavia and UK it is not unusual to find remains of corpses when "new" graves are dug. I remember a local case where someone found a skull sticking up from the grass. Imagine how long it took for it to travel up again. So we definitely take longer to decompose than you imagine. Other than that, I agree with you. :thumbs: [/quote]
