Social issues apparently don't matter...abortion, homosexuality....those are not important in the sophisticated 21st century....

Another 10 hospitals incinerated remains as part of standard garbage disposal protocol. Treat the unborn as “medical waste” and don’t be surprised when some facilities take that idea to its logical conclusion.
The Telegraph’s headline implies that incineration was reserved for aborted babies, as some sort of final ghoulish indignity for the unwanted, but the story says the policy was broader than that. Miscarried fetuses ended up being burned too.
Last night the Department of Health issued an instant ban on the practice which health minister Dr Dan Poulter branded ‘totally unacceptable.’…
One of the country’s leading hospitals, Addenbrooke’s in Cambridge, incinerated 797 babies below 13 weeks gestation at their own ‘waste to energy’ plant. The mothers were told the remains had been ‘cremated.’
Another ‘waste to energy’ facility at Ipswich Hospital, operated by a private contractor, incinerated 1,101 foetal remains between 2011 and 2013.
They were brought in from another hospital before being burned, generating energy for the hospital site. Ipswich Hospital itself disposes of remains by cremation.
How do you process this story if you’re a pro-choicer? I can imagine three camps. One is the “so what?” group. If “life” doesn’t begin until viability (or birth, for the hardcore abortion warrior), then yeah, this is medical waste. You don’t cremate tumors, do you? Toss it in the incinerator. Next is the group that wants to distinguish between miscarried babies and the aborted. The parents of the former saw a life in the making even if pro-choicers didn’t; the remains should thus be treated with due decorum, as a consolation to the bereaved. The remains of the aborted needn’t be similarly respected. Finally, there’s the group that’s uncomfortable with treating fetal remains as waste (or fuel) under any circumstances. I don’t know how to square that with the idea that life begins at viability, though. To do it, you need to move from the standard pro-choice position that what’s growing in the womb isn’t really “life” to the position that yes, okay, it’s human life, but abortion is a form of justifiable homicide. Then you can treat the remains with the dignity due, say, an executed prisoner. But most pro-choicers are obviously reluctant to make that move; once you concede that a life is at stake, you’re on dangerous ground politically.
Anyway, question for our three lefty readers: Which group are you in?
I truly hope disaster falls upon this country.
So the Global Warming didn’t take, huh . . .
The abortion-lovers have to tell themselves that they are killing a non-human. So then it’s Ok to burn a non-human.
I would really like to know what a man-hating self-loathing feminazi thinks about this.
Wow, I’ll bet Hitler never even thought of that.
I’m sure they are doing it here...they just haven’t been caught.
RE: .they just haven’t been caught.
Just for the sake of argument, let’s say they were caught doing in here in the USA... will there be any consequences?
Social issues apparently don't matter...abortion, homosexuality....those are not important in the sophisticated 21st century....
Moloch must be appeased!
Yes, Obama will invite the administrators to DC for a dinner, MSNBC will give one of them a half hour weekly talk show, and Debbie Wasserman Schultz will talk about their bravery in another fund raising letter blaming Republicans for the shabby shape of the American economy.
Those are consequences.
...oh, and I forgot: except for a handful of Republicans and the grassroots, the bulk of the GOP leadership will respond with “Let’s not judge.”
I wonder if hell is going to be even hotter for those who do things like this....
LOL...of course not. Not from any earthbound entity, shall we say...
What’s wrong with this? If you accept the logic that these are just blobs of cells that may be killed at any time, then what’s wrong with burning them? Or feeding them to pigs?
Actually, I have read that there was a patent taken out by some German firm that utilized melted fat as a fuel in the cremation process. Not that the exhaust btu output was ever captured and used for heating, just for incinerating the dead. Supposedly, this patent is still in use. Supposedly.
That’s what people get when they vote to become vassals, objects or property. They have their fat, teeth, hair and ashes taken by the state and used for its benefit. Spreading the wealth around . . .
The West will deserve its coming judgment. The pity is that many innocents will also suffer. In the end, however, all is made right for eternity.
Wendy Davis approved, no doubt.
The West will deserve its coming judgment. The pity is that many innocents will also suffer. In the end, however, all is made right for eternity.
The West? Meaning the Western Hemisphere?
It already has but they don’t know it.
I was going to suggest the next step these people will take but the thought of it made me puke.
