Interesting that having sex with a freshly killed deer is illegal, a human corpse is just fine. thanx, bill Quantum materiae materietur marmota monax si marmota monax materiam possit materiari?

Enough to annoy a republican. This was just some guys who were interested in a girl just a little past her "best used by" date. Imagine you being caught up by such a thing... _{/me wanders away shaking my head}

Because of Christians belief in physical resurrection, they have always been very concerned with what happens with the body after death. This gave Christianity very complex death rituals and various taboos and beliefs about grave sites. And naturally with such beliefs, Necrophilia would be a terrible offense. Jay
