In defence of the
Catholic and Anglican Church
Some of this document is based on hearsay but
most of the main issues with the very strong beliefs of the churches at the
time are true use your common sense remember innocent until proven guilty.
Back in the day
the Canadian federal government made a decision that the best way to deal with
the indigenous peoples of upper Canada was to assimilate them into western
culture by taking there children many by force and some voluntarily to school
them in residential schools. This is a form of genocide. The churches involved
played a very small roll in this decision it is possible the colonialists may
have delt with the native using more brutal force if the churches the Anglican
and Catholic did not voluntarily take on the task.
In the churches
belief they honestly believed if they did not take on this task these indigenous
people were doomed to hell true or not that is what these people firmly
believed they must be turned in Christians at all costs by teaching them about
our lord and savior Jesus Christ and preaching the gospel. I am not saying there
was no abuse going on sexual or other in nature some people are just plain bad,
and Satan can get into everything including the church. Yes, there were deaths
at these schools some by malnutrition some by disease and I recon possibly on a
very tiny scale by murder. When a death occurred I believed there was an lackadaisical
attempt to notify the family and the bodies were returned to them or they were
told to bury them in the local grave yard.
What did they do with the bodies they respectfully buried them in a
graveyard I believe with wooden grave markers that disappeared over the ages in
individual plots not a mass grave that the media is spouting (a mass grave is a
big hole with a bunch of bodies dumped in).
Remember innocent until proven guilty. I deeply resent the
lies. Do not insult mine and mine and many of your ancestor’s church.
