The farmer initially put
the corpse in a deep freezer, police in the German town of Frizlar-Haddamar said, and told curious locals the old man was in a nursing home.
"From lectures about various religions the 29-year-old knew that Buddhists either burn the dead or allow wild animals to eat them. That was how he decided to feed the corpse to his pigs," the police statement said.
What the....!?!?!??!?! :x

I took Human Anantomy and we had to work with a cadaver so it wasn't that scary. The thing I'm pissed off is they said Buddhists allow wild animals to dead dead bodies. What are we? Cavemen to them? :xFIVER wrote:I KNOW!!!!! I can't even go near a dead body, let alone touch one!LennyeTran wrote:The farmer initially put

UM... :? if i don't think about it too much, I kinda find some logic in this. I mean, humans eat other animals. Why not the other way around? Well, yeah... :? :? Even though I said that I still prefer cremation.LennyeTran wrote:I took Human Anantomy and we had to work with a cadaver so it wasn't that scary.

This is why it bugged me when they said Buddhists do that. I mean, I don't like the way they're targeting a specific group based on this guy's information from some lectures about various religions that he took. It bugged me. Maybe I'm reading into it too much.
Anyway, disgusting is one word I can only say.

LOL, no no. The farmer had heard from someone that Buddhists supposedly fed corpses to wild animals. He probably couldn't find any wild animals and so just fed the corpse to his pigs.tangsen wrote:"From lectures about various religions the 29-year-old knew that Buddhists either burn the dead or allow wild animals to eat them.

And it says "From lectures about various religions...", I'm thinking the farmer got his religions mixed up... :? I hope.
