That's just an opinion too, one I've argued does NOT convey respect for human beings, but you pronounce it as dogma.
I have always thought that it is how you treat people while they are alive that conveys respect, not how you treat their body after they are dead.

Please follow the argument.
I was not arguing. I was just stating what I have always thought.
Why can't there be different ways of conveying respect?
There are different ways of showing respect. I was telling you mine.
