The human spirit

Blasphemous is the only way I can describe the current human condition. I had thought that America had progressed. If there was one thing that I have learned while growing up in white liberal suburbia, it is this: tolerance. We've battled against all forms of bigotry like slavery, racism and communism and triumphed in the end. We've made many strides in our tolerance by embracing the gay community. With this I could only have one question: how can a society that accepts a union between a man and a man not also accept a union between a man and a dead man? You see folks, during my time serving the public with my burial services with competitive rates, I have realized that they are still human. Why do we consider a person not human simply because their heart no longer beats? The blood stagnates, but the spirit still courses the veins. The spirit still lives on in the body and still needs love. I know this because I am in love with Tatiana, the woman who I was suppose to bury in April. When I prepared her for the funeral, I slowly unzipped the body-bag exposing her pearl white face and was instantly smitten. We went out on many dates. Oh how joyous they were, I can still remember how morbidly nervous I was on our first date. I was so nauseous, I nearly threw up (but I did anyways)! After three months, we are now happily engaged. Great news right? Until I went to the nearby church and was denied my marriage. I cannot believe that we say that we live in "the land of the free" when the marriage of two people in love is denied. This is an oppression on dead people! The dead may not have working organs, but they still have a working soul. If you ignore that soul, you are a killer. A soul still needs us and by neglecting it, you kill it.

Fight for the Dead's rights. Contact your local congressmen and tell them that souls deserve love. This is an outrageous show of bigotry and must be corrected.
