"I think that my baby was sold"
#8
RE: "I think that my baby was sold"
From an article linked to the one in the OP.

Quote:What was the motivation for the abductions? There are plenty of theories. One is that the children of parents thought to be morally wanting -- maybe single mothers, maybe left-leaning politically -- were prime targets to be moved to more politically correct (right-wing, Catholic) families.

But the dominant theory is more basic than that: money.

You have to be pretty goddamn greedy to steal someone's child and sell it, but the Catholic church has never been short on greed.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
