"Your endless begging of philosophic questions is no more credible than your out right lies. Unfortunately for you, this is not 1933 Germany, and there are still many of us who will stand up for the targetted group."

(The above comment from a guy who terms the Holocaust a "Cult". By "the targeted group" he means himself & the tiny collection of rabid neo-confederate crackpots, a total disgrace for the Conservative movement )

Your continuous use of the Nazi tactics, while appealing to your own claque for applause, will not alter the truth in the slighterst.

As demonstration of how absurd and vicious your approach is, I quote the introduction to my essay:

Synopsis

The ritualized dogma over Nazi slaughter of Jews. What sustained Jews for 3300 years--a rational theology. Worship of a Golden Calf vs. birth of a sustainable theology. Slaughter of Achievers and Believers in the 20th Century. Will Karl Marx triumph over Moses?

Few subjects have evoked more emotion in the Twentieth Century than the organized slaughter of innocent civilians, perpetrated by the great totalitarian regimes of the Left. No one knows for certain even within tens of millions, precisely how many died. In China alone the estimates very by such dimensions--a vast tide of humanity. This essay, however, is not on the subject of the slaughters, themselves, but rather on what we perceive to be a deliberate misuse of the horror evoked by such carnage to the obvious further detriment of one of the most readily recognized victim groups, European Jews, and to their American cousins.

In describing the Cult of The Holocaust, we do not intend the usual idiotic debate over the precise numbers of Jews killed by the National Socialists and their sympathizers between 1942 and 1945. Whether the total was 4.7 million, as some have contended, the usually proclaimed shibboleth of 6 million, or even a slightly higher number, is a convenient diversion from critical examination of the psychological causes of the horror, or the nature of a constructive response. In our opinion, a ritualized response, whether by Jew or Gentile, which insists that the subject be discussed only by the iteration of approved details, terms, phrases and preferred adjectives, is not only intellectually dishonest. To the extent that this has been allowed to negate quieter emotions, the dignity of genuine sorrow, it demonstrates an insensitivity to human feelings. To the extent that it has been appropriated by the Non-Nazi Left, as a tool to damn the Right, it furthers the very lies that Hitler used to bring that slaughter to a ghastly fruition. To the extent that the ritualization becomes dogma, embraced by Western Jewry, it is clearly self-destructive.

One suspects that you hate the memory of Moses for the same reason that you hate the Old South--the region where Jews were first fully accepted into the social mainstream. You remain beneath contempt.

Amazing, ain't it? The "Cult" of the Holocaust? I don't understand what that means. I do know that the horrid reality of this...:

...is not something about which I think it is appropriate to label those who remember and deplore that historical event as comprising a "cult."

"Ohioan," how about some straight answers as to what precisely you mean with this "Cult of the Holocaust" business?

Thanks.
