It would be interesting to learn what the lurkers thought, when they discovered that Keith Olbermann, Robin Williams, Maureen Dowd, and Bill Maher all said that the Holy Father was a Nazi, just like the Calvinists do ....

It is a documented fact that the Pope was a member of the Hitler's Youth, an off shoot of the Nazi Party. What his motives were are questionable. However, let's not try to rewrite history and imply he wasn't.

He was conscripted.

It was a forceable induction, he was pressed into compulsory service.

A half-truth is a lie too.

But Hitlerjugend membership did not confer membership in the Nazi party. That’s simply false.

And that’s what a Nazi is...a member of the Nazi party.

You want to establish Pope Benedict was a Nazi, prove his party membership.
