I wonder why the media ALWAYS has to mention what other groups think of the Pope's selection? Who gives a rat's patootie? Nothing will change with other groups. There will still be sniping about the Pope and Church and how horrible the Church has been over the centuries....yada-yada-yada.

The Nazi site just shows how scared the Pope-haters are. That he is German always adds to it. We have such an anti-German attitude in this country. Not surprising the website exists. I'm just surprised that it's NOT here. I guess the Italian website is peopled by some of those folks OVER THERE.

The crude photomontages of the head of former German Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger on the body of a man wearing a swastika armband and standing in front of a Nazi flag...

You mean they montaged a Nazi flag, Henry Windsor, and Ratzi all together? Those demons!

I thought this new fellow was more of a "sticks and stones may break my bones; but names will never hurt me"-kind of guy(?).

Vitello said he was also considering taking action against the owners of the site for insulting the authority and honor of the Pope himself.

This is why I love the Italians!

Let us weigh the balance

Nazi Germany

1. Murdered 12 million in death camps
2. Nazis never won popular support (took power illegally)
3. Few people involved in the killing (SS types but few others)
4. The world condemns Nazis to this day (rightly so)


United States today

1. Murdered 45 million in abortion mills (haven't even started good euthanasia)
2. Every politician claims popular support (rightly so)
3. Every year 1.5 M have blood on their hands. (Reg. women not incl clinic staff)
4. Claims moral authority around the world (many fans)

Anyone see a problem with this picture? Everyone wants the abortion exception, they will not get it, but they want to pretend "that's different". It isn't; but they like their blinders on and will resent the comparison. Like it or not, it is justified. This is not a "Christian" nation and we are NOT moral but we have much better PR people than the Nazis did.

Thank you once again for the pings, your wondeful photosand your great efforts in keeping us up to date on news related to the Pontiff.

Unfortunately, I don't know that we can ever completely wipe out websites like this. When one is taken out, another pops up in its place.

We just have to continually refute the lies and distortions as much as we can.

As a person of half-Italian descent (and proud of it), I thank you. :)
