For emphasis because boldface means more keystrokes.

Also . . . because I get irritated at people who make serious accusations without checking their facts.

You are basically helping spread an old Commie slander against a very good Pope who did all he could to help the Jews. Contemporary Jews, including Golda Meir, Albert Einstein, and the Chief Rabbi of Rome, praised him for his efforts. Twenty years later, a two-bit failed playwright, funded by the STASI, wrote a preposterous six-hour long play, and people take it as gospel.

I disagree. I believe you are doing the equivalent of shouting and screaming at others. Now you are mocking other posters (the line up comment). You called me a bigot and a liar, and accused me of sin for posting a picture from a source that said what it was that I identified it as. What I believe you are attempting to engage is the act of slander. Accusing others here of bigotry, hatred, and lying is wanton slander.

I have no "hatred" of Catholics. I was one until my mid 30s. A very serious one. Most of my beloved family still is. I had no personal relationship with Christ, and no clue about how one becomes saved. I asked many Priests over the years about how I could be sure I would go to heaven. They themselves didn't know. "That's a Great Mystery" was the standard response. Thanks to Christ and the Scriptures, my eyes and heart were opened. Accepting Christ was the most profound thing I have ever encountered.

As to the thread topic, I maintain that the Catholic Church, through the leadership of Pius XII, did a horrible job of confronting the Nazis and an even worse job of protecting the Jews of Europe. Moreover, the Replacement Theology practiced by the church, then and now, is wrong and un-Biblical.
