All of that must be a bit of a worry for you, eh?
You should probably write a book about it, too.
In the meanwhile, though, I will stay with The Book I have.
The one my Father gave me.

This has been an interesting exercise for me.
Ever the relentless [Tongue-in-cheek, to be sure!] pursuer of Truth; the passionate and almost Quixotic champion of the underdog; detesting cruelty and injustice – and having a passion for justice and an insatiable curiosity to match, I was interested to hear what the atheistic totalitarian socialist Fallaci had to say about Europe’s obscene and revealing neo pogroms.
And, for an atheistic totalitarian socialist, Fallaci said what she said very well indeed.
Her indictment of Europe’s appalling history of institutionalized hatred of The Jewish People is as complete as it is obscene.
But, sadly for Truth, Justice and The American Way, Fallaci, being the "good" atheistic totalitarian socialist that she is, couldn’t miss the opportunity to take a libelous swipe at the Church of her childhood. That Church whose fellow-fallen former female followers of Fallaci’s age group are heavily overrepresented in the locked wards of the world’s mental hospitals; their lives of youthful promiscuity and abandon having, in their dotage, come back, one might say, to haunt them!
And so in an otherwise quite impressive article she threw in the atheistic totalitarian socialists’ tired old libel about the Catholic Church and her side’s Christian-hating [And mass-murdering] atheistic totalitarian-socialist, National Socialist Workers’ Party, pagan-heathen, Hitler.
And I protested that single lie.
And then, amazed at the reaction and at what happened next, stayed around to see what crawled out from under what rocks and what appearance of what "evidence" other Fallaci-like Christian haters would have lined up in support of Fallaci’s atheistic-totalitarian-socialists' tired old libel about NAZI paganism and the Catholic Church!
And what an interesting experience that has been.
And now I am bored with it and will move on.
And continue to pray that any that cannot see the error of his way – and before his hatred and rage consumes him and those around him – is shown the Light.
G-d bless Y’All!
I have a copy saved. If you need it, let me know, and I'll email toyou...send me your address by freepmail.
And facts is facts and History is History.
And the truth is The Truth!
And foul libels is foul libels.
And false and malicious and bigoted predetermination is false and malicious predetermination.
And having to hand and promulgating and publishing the appearance of "evidence' in support of an evil predetermination is fundamental dishonesty.
And the fundamentally-dishonestly-supported foul libel that I struck out against and stand against until I am without the breath and/or the strength to do so longer; that there was an institutionalized "Christian Church [The Catholic Church and the Lutheran were mentioned] participation in" the pagan-heathen false-fuerher-Mohammed-emulating totalitarian-socialist Hitler's slaughter of at least seven million Christians and six million Jewish People -- and some others, gypsies, sexual deviants etceteras; [And/or that the people ordering and/or doing the slaughtering met any reasonable definition of what is "a Christian"] is and will remain a fundamentally-dishonestly-supported foul libel!
And you and I will disagree about that.

That's good, then. Always a pleasure to find common ground.
..... but you had a problem with that.
On the contrary, I am delighted that we have discovered something to agree about.
I would be happy to find out that there was no institutionalized collusion on the part of some Lutheran and Catholic churches, or other churches, especially in Germany and Croatia.
Just as I would that the mass terrorization of whole populations was not occurring at the time; that Total War was not being waged; that the pagan-heathen NAZI's propaganda machine and its ceaseless spewing of lies deceits and mis- and dis-information was not being so effective; that ceaseless revisionism has not occurred ever since 1945 and continues apace -- and there was any way of knowing who said what and to whom and if words and statements ascribed to anyone and/or to any institution were ever uttered by the individual and/or by anyone connected to the institution -- and/or under what circumstances.
A clue as to whether or not the Catholic Church was institutionally involved might be gained from the fact that after the war, the Chief Rabbi of Rome -- in part as the expression of his immense gratitude to the Pope and to the Church for the massive efforts both had made to rescue and/or to save "hundreds of thousands of Jewish People" [At the cost of the lives of more than three million Catholics] -- converted to the Catholic Faith.
That monstrously bloody-evil Europeans were engaged with Hitler in his mass-murders and other Evil is not in dispute. To call any of them "Christian" is to redefine Christianity.
..... I ... suggest ..... would do more for your cause .....
I don't have a "cause" here; a dog in this fight -- or a stake in either the Catholic or Lutheran Churches.
My participation in this thread was first to point out that Fallaci ruined an otherwise very fine essay with her visciously-anti-Catholic libel and then to take on the fact that you were so ready to post the appearance of "evidence" in support of the original libel -- and of your own subsequent libels.
But; back to openers; I am glad that we have found a little common ground. Shalom.
