No BURIAL records, per the Tuam article, for children under the care of the Catholic church who died while in their care. All they have is death records (maybe) but no indications that these nearly 800 little ones were given the respect in death they didn't get in their short, sad lives. It seems you have already decided what the facts are regarding the Tuam AND this situation in Sweden before all the facts are known - something I was accused of doing. What my main concern was the way these innocent children were treated while they were alive and the way their bodies were discarded in death, I held back judgment, preferring to wait until the facts are known - if they CAN be. That the pro-death/pro-abortion crowd can point to Tuam as an indictment against pro-lifers as evidence of caring more about stopping abortion than what happens to a child after he is born, is what I expressed repeatedly in that other thread.

When, and if, it is determined those 500 year old remains were dug up from unmarked areas, haphazardly tossed about and disrespected - though, that doesn't seem to be the issue, I will, of course, condemn it, because the respect for all human life doesn't stop at their death. I don't expect the same availability of burial records that should exist in the twentieth century. Human remains shouldn't be used as decoration - even in a "church", don't you agree or has your own bias caused you to miss that?

Oh, please. I’m not the one with the bias. Nice to hear you backpedaling, however.
