It's not the religious authorities that are complaining about this, it's the families of the deceased. And not only did they do this without asking, they did it even after asked to stop.

Here's some more detail on that situation.

I think you're being remarkably naive about this, personally. I mean, I couldn't care less, as I think it's all mumbo-jumbo, but let's say it does have personal significance. Let's say that instead of religion, it's nationality, and some folks in Japan decided that they were going to posthumously declare your grandfather, who fought against the Japanese in World War II, a Japanese citizen and then publish the fact that he was a Japanese citizen in a book.
