Today on Fountain Square

In a city where the Bodies Exhibit has lasted months, Cincinnati gets squeamish over a one day display from the Genocide Awareness Project.

Bodies The Exhibition UPDATE

Mom de Guerre has left an update in the combox regarding this horrific display. I wanted to share it here:


Important update!

NY Attorney General concludes his investigation with this:

"The grim reality is that Premier Exhibitions has profited from displaying the remains of individuals who may have been tortured and executed in China," said Attorney General Cuomo. "Despite repeated denials, we now know that Premier itself cannot demonstrate the circumstances that led to the death of the individuals. Nor is Premier able to establish that these people consented to their remains being used in this manner. Respect for the dead and respect for the public requires that Premier do more than simply assure us that there is no reason for concern."

Let's shut this crap down. Enough is enough. I had a well-written, respectful email to the wing of the museum in charge of the display and they didn't have the decency to reply.

What goes around...

Cadaver Exhibit Under Investigation In N.Y

Dr. Gunther von Hagens told ABC's "20/20" that he had to destroy some bodies he had received from China because they had injuries that made him suspect they had died in executions.

Nice. Who is to say these didn't die from a letal injection or poisoning? No one has ultimately proven the origin. Since the people who are part of this display did not give consent, that alone violates their freedom. This demonic show has had it's day. I'm sick of people profitting on the death of another(abortion included).

Burn baby, burn. Let's hope they get taken down and maybe someone in Cincinnati will follow suit. We can't even take our kids there now because of the "death for profit" show. Idiots. If they had nothing to hide, they would have answered my email.

Oh good grief

Just when I was ready to let this be I found they are now trying to peddle their Bodies to homeschoolers. That is downright laughable.
Home School Programs

What homeschool mother is going to take her precious Christ-following little ones to the dead Chinese display?

Your Heart, Your Blood, Your Health
February 18
10-11:30 a.m.
From the description:
Following the program include a visit to the special exhibit BODIES…The Exhibition for an additional charge of $11 per person.

Whatever, that's like taking a group of atheist children to the Cathedral Basilica in Covington to learn about stained glass windows. Not going to happen.

Well there ya go.

Archbishop Weighs In On Controversial 'Bodies' Exhibit

"Whatever the merits of 'Bodies' as an educational exhibit, and however well intentioned the exhibit's creators might be, it seems to me that the use of human bodies in this way fails to respect the persons involved. Therefore I do not believe that this exhibit is an appropriate destination for field trips by our Catholic schools. If parents, as the primary educators of their children, believe that it has educational value, they should be the ones to take their children to see it."

I must admit, I am thankful that he has stepped up to the plate. It was needed and I am certain, a good call from one of our local ordinaries. I do not agree with the last zinger that parents should take their children "if they want to" but I didn't expect a black and white directive. It's either wrong or not wrong but it cannot be both.

Now, about Summorum Pontificum....

Just joking...

Shocker. BODIES update.

No response from the Cincinnati Museum Center on Bodies The Exhibition. If they wanted to refute any of my objections, they could have emailed a response. Their silence speaks volumes. You can kiss your "family" business goodbye. Selling corpses to our children in the name of education is sinful and borderline satanic. The liberal humanist crowd in Cincinnati never ceases to amaze me.

(Why should we be expected to believe ANYTHING the Chinese government(country) provides as documentation? Last I checked they can't even produce lead-free baby toys. The company involved in the Pittsburgh display fed a bunch of "stuff" to the diocese there and the diocese gave the display a pass. The unborn babies in the exhibit are the most questionable. Natural causes? In China? A pre-term infant? Uhg. Didn't it raise a red flag that one of the men involved was the son of an Nazi SS agent? Man this gives me the creeps!)

Yeah, I'm in a mood. With good reason.

Here's what Archbishop Raymond Burke had to say about this in St. Louis:

TEXT: No Body World Exhibit For Catholic Field Trips
We need some of that same action here, at the very least.

BODIES. Speak up Cincinnati!

**Above photo is a corpse-processing factory in Dalian city, Liaoning Province China where corpses were turned into specimens**

Starting February 1, the Cincinnati Museum Center will feature BODIES...The Exhibition . A gruesome display of Chinese dead bodies aimed to "teach, enlighten and inform". Even in more liberal cities such as Seattle and Amsterdam, they are protesting this carnage loudly and openly. A website with a petition has been established here:

Stop Body Worlds

Sadly, the location chosen in Cincinnati is frequented by thousands of children on any given weekend. The man in charge of this exhibit paid a Chinese university 25 million for "rent" the bodies for 5 years.
Here is another site to add to the outrage:

No Bodies 4 Profit

As a side note, on both sides of the river, the Bishop of Covington and the Archbishop of Cincinnati should be speaking out against this(via our newspapers, Sacred Heart Radio, etc) so parents DO NOT take their children to this sideshow carnage. Even a local news station did a feature story on this exhibit.

Where do the bodies really come from?

The U.S. corporation Premier Exhibitions, Inc. is the organizer of this human body exhibition. When Epoch Times journalists asked the company about the source of the corpses, the answer was, "They come from Dalian Medical University in China." But the company could not provide detailed information about the source. Experts on the Falun Gong issue believe it is highly possible that the human bodies in the exhibition, or at least some of those bodies, are the corpses of Falun Gong practitioners in China who have been tortured to death.

News of the Sujiatun Death Camp , where human organs have been harvested from several thousand living Falun Gong practitioners for profit, has recently caught the attention of the world's media, further spotlighting the Chinese communist regime's practice of trading in human organs and human corpses.

To Premier Exhibition's Bodies and Von Hagens Body Worlds, take your demonic side show out of our city. Oh, and shame on the Cincinnati Museum Center for spoon feeding our innocent children this rubbish in the name of education. Big money for dead bodies. Sounds like the abortion industry's organ and tissue money trail, does it not?
(One more thing, Von Hagen, the anatomist who created these bodies in plastic is the son of an Nazi SS agent. Nice, huh?)
