Well ok perhaps not actualy eat them, there are many health reasons why we don't eat the dead, but in a world where slowly rationality is taking over from the psuedo-sciences and religions why aren't we throwing away our archaic moral issues and using an immense resource.

Look at it this way..we need trees to breath..Why not stop using trees to create paper and wood and throw ourselves into researching how the bone and carbon of our bodies could be used in everyday materials.

Being squeemish is not a good excuse, it's about time death became a more acceptable part of life as it is our attempts to hide from it that are causing most of the problems of this overpopulated world.
