I want to propose new designs:
One for agnostics — ⁉️
And one just for me — 😮

What is the point of a tombstone? Will anyone go there and sit by your grave? I have never though that anyone would want to do that by my grave, have to ask my kids about it.

I don’t plan on being buried. I’ve requested cremation and have my ashes placed in a glass bottle and in the Atlantic Ocean. I’ve also requested no kind of service, no mass, no funeral, no nothing. There will be certain people my relatives will call and let them know that I passed, and that is as far as it will go.

Pretty much me, except my body goes to med school first. And, I go to a river.

I'm supposed to be buried in the Jewish part of a cemetery. I wonder if they'd put the atheist symbol on my stone.

If a vet, the stone can be ordered. Would the cemetery object? The cemetery usually doesn't know what is coming, as far as I know. There may be some clause in a contract.

If you request it then you should get one, your family and loved ones should respect your last requests.

Technically... that's 65 religious symbols and 1 non-religious symbol. 🙂

There's also a Humanist symbol and a Pentagram. I would want the Pentagram even though I'm staunch Atheist it would piss the religious community off. I guess it won't matter by then.
