Cremation, and the Wildcat scattering of ashes are on the rise, “Wildcat  Scattering” means that one scatters ashes wherever or whenever they want.

Usually it happens at a location favored by the deceased, or a a special family place. The graveyard can be anywhere.

Cremation Chamber

“In the funeral business, it’s known as “wildcat scattering.” The Journal describes the practice as “surreptitiously spreading ashes in favorite parks, stadiums, fishing spots or wherever else feels meaningful.” The Cremation Association of North America estimates about 135,000 families a year are choosing to scatter ashes. “Religion used to hold the script of what you did with the dead,” said Tom Jokinen, a former apprentice undertaker who has written an about-to-be-published memoir, “Curtains.” “Cremation has handed the power back to the people to do what they want with the remains of their loves ones.”via www.nytimes.com

Michael Jackson Converted to Islam

Some reports say Michael Jackson Converted to Islam

So which religion will take center stage at the Michael Jackson Funeral? This is the situation many folks face when making funeral arrangements? Many times the deceased had no religious, or spiritual involvements but the family prefers a certain type of spirituality.

Some Reports say  Michael Jackson’s MJ converted to Islam. Jeremaine his brother also converted to Islam. Odds are an Iman will be saying the main prayers. Prayer’s coming from other clerics are a distinct possibility, as the family of Michael Jackson are a part of several faiths. MJ was brought up a Jehovah’s Witness.

From archbishop-cranmer.blogspot.com

In any funeral arrangement a key decision is Which Religion Will Take Center Stage? As in every funeral arrangement, the family must decide this issue.
