Re: Dr. Zakir Naik: Lectures on various topics
I was not aware that the "esteemed" Doctor was limiting his arugments against cremations to Hindu only. Because the first 4 of my points are correct in relation to cremations in the US. He is going to have to come up with separate arguments against non-Hindu cremations which proves my 5th point.
a) US, don't know burning method in India.
b) We are talking about cremation - not dead bodies lying around. Ashes are much more earth friendly and logical than decaying bodies, especially in overpopulated areas. If a decaying body makes the grass greener in the cemetary I don't think that count that as an ecological bonus. Cow dung does the same thing, let's not overstate its importance.
d) Again, I was speaking of US. If India goes to gas then this isn't an issue.
e) 'nuff said
If the Hindus can come up with a cleaner and more efficient way to burn the bodies then I think they are spot on.
