Well I don’t know about Pius, but if there is antiSemitism it is wrong. That said, I don’t cotton to the idea that every person who was appointed to Peter’s Chair was perfect or has to be regarded as having been perfect. Is everyone of your pastors or bishops or whatever you have perfect? Peter’s Chair is perfect. The broken humans chosen for it have big shoes to fill. Even Peter wasn’t perfect. Old David sure wasn’t perfect. Imperfect Popes paid for it I am sure when they were finally judged. That said there have been some great ones.

Then why the focus on every alleged little misstatement or possible error from Luther.

RC's demand perfection out of him and castigate him for stuff that they can't even prove, and yet when it's popes or priests.....

This is the kind of answer we get?

They hold Luther to standards that probably Jesus couldn't meet, and RC's blowing off heinous sin with *hey we're all just sinners, and nobody is perfect*.

Could any Catholic demonstrate some integrity and apply the same standard to ALL men instead of giving themselves a pass and condemning everyone not them?

Luther's track record pales in comparison to so many of your popes and priests.

Catholics need to quit being such hypocrites
