You apparently are not knowledgeable enough to know that the Church did NOT run the so-called Ratlines. Some Catholic officials were involved, but not the pope.

And no, I don’t think the Church has changed, nor did it need to.

You might want to consider it, however.

Ever heard of concept of plausible deniability?

While plausible deniability may work for Pius XII, it does not work for Pope Paul VI. Monsignor Montini headed the ratlines and and he became The Pope.

While he was running the ratlines, he was a Substitute Secretary of State.

Well, if the Pope wasn't involved it must have not been really a RCC operation!

I do know that the Pope signed a deal with Hilter to let the RCC operate without Nazi interference if the RCC would not raise any fuss about the Jews being murdered.

And no, I don’t think the Church has changed, nor did it need to. You might want to consider it, however.

No, the RCC hasn't changed.

Now instead of hiding Nazis, they hide pedophiles, but ofcourse the Pope has no knowledge of that either!
