&gt; &gt; If it is that, why does it bother you?<p>&gt; Grinding a human being into dust doesn&#x27;t bother you?<p>For one, that is not an answer. For the other, no it doesn&#x27;t. The brain is shut down. All that&#x27;s left is cells which individually may still have some life, but are bound to die quickly anyhow. And particularly after being burned they&#x27;re all guaranteed to be dead, so the grinding does not harm any living being anymore.<p>Does the grinding bother you more than the burning?
