I would love to get turned into a diamond when I die though I doubt my family would spend that kind of dough on me. They'll tell me they will when I'm on my deathbed but instead stick me in the ground or have wild animals feed on my carcass. I'd dwell within the stone of my former body and perhaps possess those that handle it. I wonder how big of a diamond it'll be if they use all your ashes. Maybe mine can be shaped into a statue of myself or someother figure. Anyone else really excited about this?

I don't think it is immoral at all. I mean, I wouldn't actually wear any of the gems, that would give me a creepy feeling, but it's a pretty cool gesture.

That depends entirely on what the deceased wanted, and how you treat the gem. I'd think it'd probably eb okay if the dead person wanted it, and the living receptor doesn't just throw poor granny in the jewelry box with all of the CZ...


/me shrugs and walks away

But just because a dying person wishes it, doesnt mean it isnt immoral and has to be carried through with.

What if the deceased wanted someone to kill the president/emperor of a country?

Wanting your own self to become a diamond vs. wanting someone to kill someone else for you...

.... How are those even remotely similar?

Phf.


Fine.



I just think its really morbid. To turn someone into a diamond. And sort of disrespectful, in ways. Because you cant pawn ashes. Yet you can pawn a grandma grade diamond.

And fine, not a ruler of a country. What if the deceased wished you to kill the person who caused him/her to die?
