I was driving to work taking a different route. Kristie Galvani told me that taking the Southern Parkway to Wellwood Avenue was much faster than taking the Long Island Expressway, so I decided to give it a try.
I got off at Wellwood and I passed a slew of cemeteries. At first, I passed a Christian cemetery. Then I passed a Jewish cemetery. After that, I passed a Veteran’s cemetery. I started to think about our burial rituals. Each religion, each culture has different rituals to help pass the deceased to another place.
In the US, we are so intermixed. So many of us are interracially married, have interfaith marriages or even homosexual marriages, so why do we insist on burying our friends and neighbors in different cemeteries?
I know I may be a little controversial here, but if we are all equal, then shouldn’t we be placed together as one people. We can still have our burial rituals at the grave side. But would it be so bad to be buried together?
