That comment displays your propensity for side-stepping the issue.

Oh, indeed. No one will address my point, and that's fine. I show you until I'm blue in the face that that doesn't address the point, and that's "eisegesis". Fine, have it your way.

The historical evidence, and professional opinions of observers and Jews, most appropriately including those that were there, all praise Pius. You sweep all that aside, accepting spin, propoganda, and bad research by those with an unhiddden bias. That is a prima facia case of eisegesis. Unless you can refute that, it really is pointless to attempt to discuss truth with you because you refuse to see.

address my enumerated points, a) through d), in a just previous post, and I will once again explain to you why this is yet another chapter of this sustained exercise in bait&switch rhetorical tactics.

I AM NOT DENYING THAT PIUS SAVED JEWS. IT DOES NOT HELP YOUR CASE TO CONTINUE PROVING IT OVER AND OVER. Got it? Probably not. Sheesh.

Ah, a small step in the right direction.

You now acknowledge that Pius XII helped the Jews. Good for you.

We have also demonstrated that you mischaracterize evidence.
While you also sidestep issues, but I'm willing to let that pass for now.

Now, moving forward, do you acknowledge that Pius XII used his papal authority to save a large number of Jews?
