My question for Gemma is way back on the first page, which is probably why it hasn't been addressed. Let me rephrase to make it clearer:

If the bodies of some saints are preserved because of their holiness or as a sign from God, what is your explanation for the preservation of bodies in peat bogs and on mountain tops that aren't saints or even Catholic?

I in know way intend this to be a baiting question or an attack on the Catholic Church or Catholics, so I expect an answer when you get some time.

Still waiting for an answer.

Decomposing is equal to oxidation and oxidation is a slow form of burning. Since oxigen is required for oxidation the lack of oxigen in both peat bogs and mountain tops would explain their reason for preservation.

Has Gemma left the building? Or is she doing her usual routine, dodging the hard questions?
