Cool, I'm just grateful our fore bearers re-thought the concept of the Church.

Some of the finest people I know on the planet are Catholic, but they despise this pope and what has happened with the church. Most have moved to become non-denominational Protestants. Vast majority of those are Latino.

“And when the anniversary of the landing in Normandy was commemorated, I thought of the 30,000 boys who were left dead on the beach. They opened the boats and said, ‘get off, get off,’ they were ordered while the Nazis waited for them. Is that justified? Visiting military cemeteries in Europe helps one realize this,” he said

I'm confused.. Is he saying we should have just given up and let the Germans take over the entire European mainland?
