[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]It's religion specific. [/b]In Judaism I have never once seen or heard of anyone having an open casket.[/quote] No, there is nothing in Christianity that says we need to look at the dead person's face during their funeral. It's a recent invention by funeral homes in the west. [/quote] I don’t think PP was saying the Bible tells us we have to have open casket funerals, but they’re much more common in some denominations than others. My mom’s family is Episcopalian and no one had an open casket, whereas my Dad’s family is Lutheran and my DH’s is Catholic and open caskets are much more common.[/quote]
