Pentecostals do believe in cremation.
Some secular and Reform Jews think that cremation is acceptable.
Cremation is accepted in some sects of Buddhism and Hinduism. In Christianity, the acceptance of cremation varies among denominations. Islam generally does not permit cremation and considers burial the preferred method of disposal for bodies.
For some religions cremation is what they are told to do when they die, so a lot of people prefer it. I don't think it will ever be as popular as burials though.
It is a personal choice. Cremation is one way for the body to return to dust. (See Genesis 3:19.)
It is more important among the Hindus as they believe that if they do not do it , their soul will not get peace.
Certain bones will have a lime green tint after cremation most likely due to the presence of certain metals. The Chinese believe a person with this color bone after cremation was a good person during their lifetime.

No, the Eastern Orthodox Church does not allow cremation. The Christian Church from the earliest times practiced burial of the dead, as the Roman catacombs reveal. Christ resurrected the bodies of many people during His ministry on earth, such as Lazarus, and His disciples also performed many miracles and even resurrected the dead (Acts 9:36-41). So the Eastern Orthodox Church views cremation as a mockery of Christ and His Apostles who resurrected human bodies, not ashes. Additionally, during the great earthquake that happened immediately after Christ's death on the Cross, the graves opened up and the bodies of the saints were raised from the dead (Matthew 27:51-54). Cremation has also been the custom of most atheists and the pagan religions, which do not believe in resurrection, and that is another reason why the Eastern Orthodox Church has always been against it.
