Sincere question to Atheists  | |  Yesterday I went to a funeral for my husband's uncle.
As I sat there and listened to the service I realized that most of the words spoken were about the comfort of God in times of loss.
I started to wonder about what type of service people have that don't believe in God.
I am sure there are families that have a mother, father and children that are all atheist and when the mother or father passes away. How is the service done?
Yes, I am a christian, but that isn't here nor there in this question. I'm not asking about anyone's opinion about what or who is right or wrong. I am just curious how a funeral service is approached.
Is it performed in a church, at the graveside, at the funeral home?
Who speaks over the deceased? Exactly how is it done?
