It is this sort of anti-Catholicism--claiming the Vatican waged an anti-Semitic war against the Jews--that most Catholics find outrageous........


READ THIS BOOK and your mind will be changed. Here's a book for ya! http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0375406239/qid=1054685031/sr=lmlf-9/ref=cm_lm_asin/103-7423797-8152664?v=glance

No, my mind won't change because I've seen this kind of bigotry before and I know what the Catholic Church stands for--and it's not anti-Semitism. There has been a concerted effort over the years to destroy the reputation of Pius XII, for instance--although he was a good and just man and had done all he could to rescue Jews during the Holocaust. Were this a serious and scholarly Book, it would not carry the title it carries, designed to stir bigotry rather than to enlighten. There was no "war against the Jews" by the popes of the Catholic Church--ever. Such a contention is either paranoid or malicious.
