    Why? Religion. This all happened because of religion. No oversight from the government, so they did whatever they wanted. Which meant throwing away babies.

    Always remember, religion lies. They say how wonderful they ware every second of the day. This is the reality of religion. Death, suffering, and gore. Hidden from the public for as long as possible. Even the title of this article doesn’t hold the church accountable for their despicable acts. This is what religion IS. This is what they DO. Never believe what they say.

      Think bigger.

      This is what sometimes happens when you give people power without controlling for outcomes (vulgo: without oversight).

      Everything else is circumstantial. It can be a religious context, but it doesnt have to be. Bad things have happened in state-run institutions, in foster homes, in prisons, in families - wherever there is a power imbalance that goes unchecked.
