    It has to do with Christianity. Many Christians believe that Christ will come back raising the dead and restoring their bodies

      I’ve been a Christian all my life; I’m really, really sure that Christ can not only “restore” a body from nothing but make it much better than it was before. At least, I hope He plans to make it much better 😃

      I’m pretty sure most denominations of Christianity bury their dead without embalming them first and have done so for most of history.
