Hi, Gema —

The Church believes in the Resurrection of the dead, therefore the bodies of the dead should be respected. Thus, any action such as cannibalism, or the scattering of even cremated remains,
is forbidden.

Beyond that, cannibalism is an act against the natural law.

Hi, Gema —

Because John mentioned cremated remains, I just wanted to comment on the Church's position. To my knowledge, cremation is allowed under only two conditions:

1. That the cremated person and family are not denying the Resurrection, and
2. That the remains, as John stated, are not scattered, but buried on land or at sea,
   as a whole, usually in a small box or container.
