I think that what he meant was “the only group that resisted until martyrdom”.

Not the best phrasing.

Even that restatement is so far outside reality to make me want to vomit - again.

Mr. Berenbaum disgusts me. I’m not the most educated person in the world and I still know how to check the facts.

And there’s thousands of them:

But that wouldn't be accurate either. There were die-hard, born-again Christians who organized and opposed Hitler and the Nazis.

One well-known martyr was Dietrich Bonhoeffer. But there were MANY who gave their lives for their faith in resistance to the horrors of the Nazi Party. So if they meant what you said - they were still just as flawed.
