Re: Are tombs permitted?
I know certain leaders tombs are quite acceptable because they were either the 'first' leader or a great leader.
You are either for tombs or against. There is no gray area. ** I am for them, as they are a part of our history and remind us of who we are and where we came from.** It is a critical way our children will learn, since seeing is something like that is a surreal part of a childs life.
Some of us here are oblivious to this fact, and foam at the mouth when they hear the word TOMB. These enlightened folks use interesting verbage. They want to destroy MOST shrines. Lord knows why the hypocrisy. Maybe you can ask them.
But going by their logic, any tomb should be vaporized. That includes all the saudi princes and middle east richmen, whose "tombs" are even greater. We can go a step farther and say that no tombstones should be allowed either at normal grave yards.
