Moving offending places...matter of opinion...

Back in 1993...Pope John Paul II, asked (or more like directed) a group of Carmelit Nuns (about 14 of them in all) to move their convent from outside the area of what was tragically at one time the Auschwitz Death Camp.

Jewish groups and some survivors found it to be an insult to those that died there at the hands of the Nazis.

Now how does one relate to the other? Surely these Nuns were not there to cause further pain...they were there more as good will ambassadors I would believe.

There will always be divided opinion on what was right...and is compelling one to do what is politically right...really right?
