Best Answer
Roman Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church's view of cremation is covered in the Catechism of the Catholic Church in question 2301:2301 Autopsies can be morally permitted for legal inquests or scientific research. The free gift of organs after death is legitimate and can be meritorious.

The Church permits cremation, provided that it does not demonstrate a denial of faith in the resurrection of the body. (Cf. Codex Iuris Canonici, can. 1176 paragraph 3)

Why would a catholic disagree with a Atheist view on the creation story?

A Catholic may disagree with an atheist view on the creation story because for Catholics, the creation story in the Bible is considered sacred and divinely inspired. They believe in the theological truths presented in the story, such as the existence of God as the creator of the universe. Atheists, on the other hand, do not believe in a god or a divine being, so they would not accept the religious explanations provided in the creation story.
