In Christian eschatology, one day Jesus will return and the dead will rise from their graves. For many people cremation seems incompatible with this, although one imagines a benevolent deity could just as easily reconstitute people from ashes, scattered or not. Then again a lot of religious people think this mass resurrection is going to be a pretty selective affair so that it's important to have the right address even after you're dead.
