"Well, the Pope then, Pius XII had a lot of nice things to say about Hitler!"

Uh huh. Right. That's why Time Magazine quoted Albert Einstein as saying the following in 1940, while Pius XII was Pope: "Only the Church stood squarely across the path of Hitler's campaign for suppressing the truth." And that's why multiple New York Times editorials of the time called the Vatican a "lone voice in the wilderness", and the Pope the only European leader to speak out against Hitler.

I also noted several attempts on this thread to connect the Spanish inquisition directly to Rome, even though there is no evidence of that ever being established, and in fact Rome condemned many of the practices during the Spanish Inquisition.

And it would also be nice to hear just one person put the horrible boogeyman "Inquisition" into perspective, given that more people were killed in one average -week- under Communism in the 20th century were killed in all the centuries of all the various Inquisitions put together.

I'm agnostic, personally, but some people's anti-Catholic bigotry is so extreme and so blatant in it's lies and propagandizing that I consider it a moral imperative to expose it for what it is.
