i have a serious question.when a person who doesnt believe in God and is atheist who and how does the funeral?

An atheist's funeral can be done however they want it to be done. One thing to do is read from their favorite books, or play their favorite songs, and, of course, have their friends and family say something about the person they were.

Basically, the only difference between that and a Christian funeral is there is no prayer.

Typically, a secular funeral service is given. A eulogy is given by a friend or family member, reviewing the highlights of the recently departed's life. No mention is given regarding any heavenly path. Usually, the officiant says something about the many lives the person touched, and that life goes on for those he loved.

For the dead that are survived by children, a mention that their parent continues in the values and example he/she has given them.

I'm an atheist - when i die, it's the end my heart stops beating my brain stops working. For my funeral i want to be buried i will then rot and be eaten by tiny things in the soil

Why do i even need a minister, chuck me in the ground to get rid o the smell - jees

You can have a funeral without religion attached - people can speak of the deceased, passages from secular books or poems can be read and the funeral home director can guide the service.

Myself, since I will leave no descendants, I will have no funeral or memorial service. I will be cremated and my ashes spread where I have asked them to be in my will and that will be it.

I'll answer this from my own personal experience...

more often than not...the family will get a preacher, who will stand there and say "we commend his soul to you, he was such a good man"

Seen that a few times.

And have seen one time when a preacher stood up and told a family that he could not preach a funeral for someone who openly denied God. If they wanted him to talk about grief, and missing a loved one, fine...but he wasn't going to preach the man into heaven.

Might have been harsh, but

Most likely, a Unitarian Universalist Minister.

A lot of people choose to be cremeted nowadays. It get's rid of the religeos side, and sounds better to me than rotting in a box in the ground!

you can have a funeral without any religious rites. just the wake and then then the walk to the grave - then off you go!

The music would be highway to hell, and they should just cremate them throw ashes to the wind.
