These trolls are not worth the time. No matter what they will maintain the lie that Tito and other communists started long ago.

ROME, APRIL 2, 2007 (Zenit.org).- Adolf Hitler's No. 1 enemy was the Vatican's secretary of state, Eugenio Pacelli, future Pope Pius XII, according to documents recently found in Europe.
In an article published last Thursday by La Repubblica, reporter Marco Ansaldo announced that he has a dossier on Pius XII that complements documentation found in the Vatican Archives.
According to the newly discovered documents, Pius XII was considered an enemy of the Third Reich. Memos and letters unearthed at a depot used by the Stasi, the East German secret police, show that Nazi spies within the Vatican were concerned at the Pope's efforts to help displaced Poles and Jews.
One document from the head of Berlin's police force tells Joachim von Ribbentrop, the Third Reich's foreign minister, that the Catholic Church was providing assistance to Jews "both in terms of people and financially."
Russia's motives
In a commentary on the new documents, Sister Margherita Marchione, author and expert on Pius XII, explains the campaign against the Pope was the work of the Soviets.
"Russia's plans were to control Europe after the war. The only outspoken obstacle to Russia's plan in Europe was the Catholic Church," Sister Marchione wrote.
"The first attacks claiming that the Church had endorsed silently the atrocities of the Nazis came from Communist Russia," she explained. "Soon to control Poland, and other vast areas in Eastern Europe, Russia saw the need to break the loyalty to the Pope of Catholic majorities in those countries.
"The plan was a simple one: convince everyone that the Pope supported the hated Nazis during the war and, therefore, neither he nor the Church could be trusted after the war. The destruction of the Church would leave the field wide open for Russian influence and control."
LOL!
You may see it is impossible to answer this question with a simple yes or no.
I also don't remember any of the non-Catholics here claiming Pacelli/Pius XII conspired with the Nazis to bring Hitler to power.
Another lie?
Too funny.
Let me help:
...Pacelli engineered the passage of the Enabling Act of 1933. Post #478.
I wouldn't say prolific. Just 2 books. And I can't say they have world wide distribution but I do know he said they were also in print in Canada, Ireland and Great Britain.
But those can be Peter's bones in the box and Simon BarJonah's name on the box, right?
A quick google reveals that Regan Wick owns a dance studio in Denville, New Jersey (as well, apparently, schools in Colorado and Washington, DC).
Thanks, sitetest. I can hear the conspiracy theories now: "Catholic Liturgical Dance Studios owned by the Vatican."
You seem to be under the impression that I reposted the question in #734 in an effort to make you answer it. I reposted it only to illustrate that I was asking you a question and not painting you a with tar brush. No apologies for your false accusation are required.
You may see it is impossible to answer this question with a simple yes or no.
No, I don't see it is impossible.
I also don't remember any of the non-Catholics here claiming Pacelli/Pius XII conspired with the Nazis to bring Hitler to power.
Then possibly you haven't read all the posts.
How old is the charcoal they are written in?
A one word answer will suffice.
Well, no it won't. And I certainly didn't expect you to use one word in answering my question.
What more can I say?
Strawman.
Where did Titanites specify you should answer in only one word?
Lurkers can see many things for for themselves.
Believe me.
I think the article said that the writing was dated to around 70 AD.
Yes, it is pretty funny that someone on your side of this discussion has bought up the domain name, http://www.HitlersPope.com, and turned it into an anti-Cornwell site.
Funny and awfully defensive.
But you’re caught in a lie. Again.
LOL
And by the way, on that word “defensive.”
You’re damn right. Lies fly at the Church all the time. Vicious lies. Seductive lies that enthrall the foolish. My feeble defense is the best I can offer. Others do what they can do too. The devil—whether he come dressed as Vanity Fair or the NYT Book Review or a shabby propagandist on a website—is very powerful and respect for that power means defense, defense, defense.
