“Recomposting,” currently legal in Colorado, Oregon, Vermont, and Washington, involves storing a dead body in a heated container with biodegradable materials, including wood chips and alfalfa. After about 45 days, the resultant fluid and mass can be used as “nutrient-dense soil…[that] can then be returned to families or donated to conservation land,” proclaims a Los Angeles Times writer.

Why should we oppose human “recomposting”?

…“recomposting” fundamentally disregards this distinctiveness of man.

Apart from stripping the human body of meaning, “recomposting” also drives another nail in the coffin of our Judeo-Christian Genesis heritage. That heritage is already under assault

I don’t deny that, over the eons, what was once human has returned to our soil.
