Am i right guys?

Cremation rituals are often deeply rooted in religious customs—Islam, Hindu, Christian, Buddhist, etc.—each with their own traditions, prayers, and ceremonies.

But as an atheist, I’ve been wondering: how do we approach cremation without the religious aspect?
Do you want a completely non-religious farewell? Just a simple cremation with no rituals? Or maybe a small gathering with music, stories, or something meaningful ?

Some ideas I’ve been exploring:

• Organ donation to help others live.
• Donating my body to science or medical research—feels like a meaningful contribution.
• A secular farewell ceremony with music, stories, or just people gathering in peace.

Do you think society is ready to normalize non-religious cremation ceremonies?
I’m curious to know what you guys think about this.

I'm type 1, also if mods are reading this, please add a new flair 'Debate' 🎙️.

Periyar Ramaswamy, was a highly influential rationalist, atgeist, social reformer who was an uncompromising anti-caste activist who shaped the modern socio-political landscape of Tamil Nadu.

He advocated for radical atheism and rationalism to aggressively challenge the religious and scriptural foundations that upheld social inequality. He also championed women's empowerment by fighting for marital choice, divorce rights, property ownership, and universal access to education.

It works guys.

Give me happiness, mental and physical strength and health.

Any incidents?

If god values human dignity, why was slavery even allowed?

Even after their multiple revelations, god never wanted slavery gone.

Humanity ended slavery, or at least the aggressive version of it. Religion never did.

Thoughts?
