Spain has its own baby scandal from the same period, of the babies stolen from poor or irreligious mothers by the Church and sold to pious, Catholic mothers. It seems they kept infant corpses pickled in some cases to show to the birth mothers as proof that the baby had died.

These cases both seem to be consequences of observance of, or belief in, the morality handed down by religions.



Any thoughts on this stuff, I wonder?
