I've had a look at much of the bible and cannot remember any commandment that mentions not keeping ashes on a mantlepiece. I feel certain I'd remember that one. Nor firing them up into space, keeping them together or just doing stuff with them. With so much going on in the world, I'm glad the head vicar chap has a sense of priorities.

Let people deal with death of loved ones in the way they best for them.
