Despicable, dangerous, and just plain bad

(Fair Use)
“Cremains” is a term for cremated remains, and might soon be a term for creative remains.  But it’s one thing to morph corpses into jewelry, and quite another to turn them into food.

It’s now 2022, the year that Soylent Green warned about.  In that movie’s dystopian society, human corpses were routinely ground into “a staple food source.”

Lest we even consider such a solution to the world’s hunger problem, it’s wise to contemplate the following: human-to-human diseases can easily spread, more so than animal-to-human ones, and way more so than plant-to-human ones. 

And what about supply and demand?  Currently, the human birth rate far exceeds the human death rate. Which brings us to the third, and just-plain-bad point:  Killing fellow humans for food is morally even worse than morphing their corpses into meals.
