so i hiked up to the top of a mountain and saw a really big rock that was kind of spiky and looked really cool, so i climbed up the the top of it, it was really dusty and i didn’t think much of it so i brushed away the dust and sat on top of the rock while i ate my lunch, after i finished eating i stood up and looked down between me feet, then i saw it. there was a little dog tag that said: southwest crematorium. i panicked and left in a hurry.

what should i do?

    Wash your hands and then go on about your day. You didn’t defile a corpse, you disturbed a “final” resting place. The next rain would have done it anyways, nothing to worry about.

    You didn’t defile anything, if anything you fulfilled why they would have wanted their ashes scattered in that vicinity. They likely enjoyed that spot for the same reasons you did and would probably be glad that you found it too

    i accidentally defiled a corpse

    For a second I was sure I was going to read a post about a dude having sex with a corpse. By “accident” of course… 😉
