If a person has a will usually they have rights over what they want to be done. If not it is a family choice and someetimes that gets dicey when family members don't agree.....Widowed wife wants one thing and the childern another.
Do You Have "Rights" After your Dead?

Why don't you just repeat what people have said already. Honestly, I gave my answer, and everyone says the exact same thing.
I havn't read the posts in the thread, but you can write in your will what you want to happen after death.
Just incase it hasn't been said already.

As far as I'm concerned if you're dead anything is free reign. If you want to bop with old Grandma Betty Booper's corpse then have at er. Besides it's also safer, the risk of STD's and STI's are greatly reduced.
What exactly is returned the moment you die?

I specified that your body is your possession during this life and, in order to choose what happens to it, you must write it off to a family member just as you would a vase, but that after you've passed on you have no right to property.
This.
All of our natural rights are derived from the idea of self-ownership. Because we cease to exist in death, we do not retain any of our natural rights.
There cannot be a definate answer to this, I think. It's not the government's place to intervene in religion, which I believe, is something very relevant to the concept of death. I'm not sure how the government defines "legally dead" at this point, but personally I don't think one can really say whether or not someone is dead. Personally I don't believe we know enough about what life "is" to say whether or not the dead have rights.
For example, I believe life is something organic; meaning that if the conditions for life are there, life shall occur. If that is in fact the case, and I'm not claiming to be right, that means that death could technically be considered nothing more than a sickness. In that case, the dead would assume the same rights as the living.
If I'm wrong and life is something spiritual, then we wouldn't have any rights beyond that of our will, because our bodies would become as insignificant as the ground we're buried in.

This is the intelligence section? since when? This is the off topic and something for all sections not the intelligence section. Besides what does intelligence have to do with any of this different people of different beliefs that doesn't mean they are stupid.
Yes, what do you think a "will" is?
Show me a dead person who can defend their rights, and I'll show you a dead person who has rights.
While I'd like to choose how my corpse is destroyed once I've died, I really don't have much say in the matter once I'm dead. Who am I to determine what's best to happen to my corpse when I can't even properly assess the situation of my death?

That pretty much sums up my view.
People also call self-ownership a natural right.
I just leave it at self-ownership and nothing more.
When you're alive, you control your body, so you say what goes.
When you're dead, you don't.

In My opinion they dont have rights. mainly becuase if they die suddenly. then who ever is your life guardian pretty much decides what happens. wether your mom, dad or spouse. they decide where your items go how your buried. thats bull crap. alot of deaths are people that dont have a will yet, because they are young or because of some other unkown reason. :/
no touching meh junk that is it all, meh cash goes to my kids and land goes to wife or vise versa and no fancy shizzle
Once you die you can not be Defamed ect.. None of the torts apply
You have rights that your Next of Kin decides.
