What I find particularly repulsive is the display of corpses in museums.

What about the display of corpses in churches?

That's acceptable in Roman Catholic Churches!

The difference is.... Reverence, and customary religious practice.

Additionally, many of the bodies displayed in Catholic churches are incorrupt.

Museum displays are mercenary, and serve only to satisfy curiosity.
