I'll ignore the last remark. It is unworthy. You argued my assumptions were baseless, they are not. We use circumstantial evidence in this county all the time, and we can put people to death with it. I hope such evidence is not "baseless". I can't "know" that to be their intent for sure, and I wouldn't argue it is the intent of every single person- but are there a few people involved in this who feel that way? Does their media event have the end result of denigrating the women who had these abortions, and who don't regret it? You, yourself, seemed to be a little disparaging about people who treated remains like "garbage". I sensed a little judgment about the people who were doing this, creeping through your judgment about the actions. Am I wrong? Well, possibly. But from your tone and word choice the impression is not "baseless". You are probably not the only person to disparage and denigrate people who would treat remains like garbage, or to appear to be denigrating them. Whether it is intentional or not, and I suspect for some people involved it probably is intentional, it does have the effect of denigrating the people who were satisfied with having the remains of their abortions treated like trash. It certainly is a judgment on their actions. This church judged their actions so wrong they stepped in and stole them, and buried them. I'd say that is fairly judgmental. And it was you who said people who treat remains like trash don't have any right to have them treated like trash, or to complain if people who really care about other people, and their souls, want to step in to the breach and bury someone else's tissue. I find that a bit judgmental. Denigrating even.

I beg your pardon!!! Have some respect for the party of the first part for which you addressed that post and for which said party of the first part maintains legal snidery is a way of life. "there is no reason to contrive hateful intentions where there is no evidence they exist. Are you projecting, perhaps?" Oh, wait... I see you adequately and correctly qualified your premise. "...projecting, perhaps? Quite obviously, quite predictably, and quite within the inevitable character for party of the first part.
