Hmm... I wonder why nobody complained that the bones of the
Saints were displayed in Churches for all the world to
see...

I guess their descendants thought it a great honour that the
remains of their ancestors are displayed in such a way?

But none of this really matters in this discussion. I,
personally, couldn't less if some bones are displayed or not
displayed somewhere for public viewing.

All I care about is science. That the scientists can do
their job properly without interference from religious
fundamentalists.
