Morbid

Sounds kinda morbid. Who wants a pyramid of dead people? Just cuz it was the thing to do in the past doesn't mean it's a great idea today.

Space is limited

What do you suppose we should do with the dead? Space in Germany is limited. Burials are expensive, so it makes sense that some in Germany would find a way to make burials more economical by stacking it up, but remain somewhat mystical and respectful to the dead. I couldn't imagine anything other than a pyramid structure.
Lack of creativity

This project shows lack of creativity and is basically a hijacking of a great wonder. We all know that in the present time humans have the technology and capability to pile a rubble of stones and sand to form a large structure. This is done on a daily basis in mines and quarries around the world in search for gold, coal and various metals. There is nothing creative about it. Rather than coming with something original and creative they have decided to copy what the ancient Egyptions did, only bigger. If they consider this new structure to be art then please come up with a new idea.

Non-denominational?

The intention to make it non-denominational is fine, only they make it impossible for anyone who is Jewish to ever be buried there. The religion does not allow one to cremate their remains, the body is supposed to remain as intact as possible for burial. It's one of those things they should have taken better care to be more sensitive about, especially in Germany. Normally, Germans have become much more sensitive to these kinds of issues, for obvious reasons, but in this case they didn't think it through very well, at all.

What does your comment have to do with this structure being Non-Denominational.

NO! There building this pyramid to protect us from cosmics rays once planet x comes really close to earth switching the poles and cosmic rays will make us mutate at a very fast rate but we got pyramids to protect us from the rays if our magnetic poles do switch.
