So you'd rather stand with the communists than be proved wrong? Look at the company you're keeping - why would any conservative side with Marxists?

So all of those who fought against the Third Reich that had been brought to power with the assistance of Pope Pius XII were all Marxists???

No - you're standing with the Marxists now, though, in sticking to false beliefs that were planted by Marxists after the war in an attempt to slander the Church.

Contemporary accounts make it clear that Pope Pius and the Church fought harder against Naziism than any other organization in Europe. Perhaps they could have prevailed if more other churches had helped them, instead of hanging pictures of Schickelgruber in the place of honor in their sanctuaries.

You are completely wrong in your assertion that Pius XII helped bring the Nazis to power. Nothing could be further from the truth. You have based your whole view of this matter on a fictitious play, “The Deputy,” that was written by an East German communist. This would be like basing your views of modern U.S. history on an Oliver Stone movie. There is no point in even arguing with someone who knows as little as you do and who has entirely closed his mind against the truth.
