1) Lohia was cremated. He's more probably 'churning in his urn'.
2) Many Christians (and people of other religions where the dead are
buried) are also preferring cremation to burial.
So can someone suggest a more generic, non-denominational and politically
correct metaphor to replace the oft-used 'rolling in his grave'.
Cheers!

How would you then explain the admonishment we receive after
our carnival orgies, from the Rev. on Ash Wednesday: Form ashes
thou came; and to ashes shall thou return...
