How are atheists buried when they die?

by Ian Quayle



My married adult woman is a humanist celebrant (a individual who conducts humanist, nonreligious, as well as inter-religious weddings, funerals, kid namings as well as other life rituals).


She was accredited past times the British Humanist Association as well as has conducted nearly 250 non-religious funerals too every bit many babe namings as well as weddings.

Except inward odd circumstances, such every bit the dice of a child, a Humanist funeral tin sack move a joyful celebration of a life, rather than the measure grim as well as misfortunate religious service (anxiety almost the dreadful twenty-four hr menses of judgement, etc).


She unremarkably allows a infinitesimal or 2 during the funeral ceremony for serenity reflection as well as the chance for whatever religious people acquaint to pray if they wish.


Occasionally a fellow member of the menage unit of measurement volition desire to read a poesy form alongside roughly religious content as well as my married adult woman usually allows that, simply would never offering to read it herself.


What most religious people seem to immature lady to a greater extent than than anything else inward a Humanist funeral is the chance to sing together.

For them, it is real difficult to honour anything suitable that isn't religious.


The comments my married adult woman receives later these funerals, which are highly personalized according to what the deceased as well as their menage unit of measurement wants, are almost ever extremely positive - peculiarly from people who convey never experienced i before.

Although she occasionally gets rather surly negative comments from religious people who clearly don't approve.
