There is no shortage of specialists in specific fields on social media who are happy to share their knowledge and advice with their followers. They often dispel doubts related to various issues. Many people may be surprised by the fact that among Internet creators there are also priests. After all, believers also have various doubts. Some time ago to Fr. Sebastian Picur was asked a question related to burial.
Can a body be cremated? The priest answers
What about those who are cremated?
– was the content of the question asked by one of the clergy’s observers. He answered in a simple way, but unfortunately not fully understandable to everyone. He decided to refer to the words of the prophet Ezekiel:
And I looked, and, behold, sinews returned, and flesh came forth, and skin covered them on the outside, but there was no spirit in them yet.
For many observers of the priest, this answer was not clear. We can see this perfectly in the comments that appeared under the video. We read in them, among others:
So what? Because I do not understand
So cremation is not a sin?
I am asking you for a clear answer, because from this quote I still don’t know whether cremation is ok or not.
Will cremated people be resurrected?
A clear and comprehensive answer to this question can be found on the website. From the article we learn that cremation was once associated with something unacceptable in the Catholic faith. However, this raised many doubts in the context of believers who were cremated, for example, in Nazi extermination camps during World War II. Today, traditional burial of the body in the ground is usually recommended, but cremation is also considered an acceptable method of burial.
The body of a deceased person buried in the ground in a traditional way, just like a cremated body, returns to dust.
