Pope at Holocaust Memorial: Never forget their suffering

"The names enshrined in this hallowed monument will forever hold a sacred place among the countless descendants of Abraham. Like his, their faith was tested. Like Jacob, they were immersed in the struggle to discern the designs of the Almighty. May the names of these victims never perish! May their suffering never be denied, belittled or forgotten! And may all people of goodwill remain vigilant in rooting out from the heart of man anything that could lead to tragedies such as this!"

Why would the "p0Pe" of the Catholic Church ever do this ? Does he feel personally guilty for being a Nazi ? ( I found out he was studying for priesthood and went when called to be a Nazi Anti Aircraft Gunner. I had thought he was just a child Nazi NOT a ADULT NAZI ! Do you believe the media would love him so much if he did not submit to them and do evil deeds like this . Not ONE WORD of all the Catholics murdered in WWII ....... way more than Jewish deaths .

I understood where you were going and agree. I'll just add another one of those stubborn facts for that moronic poster that will inevitably place lies and misinformation in a future post here. You know it's coming.

Over 3 million Catholics died from the Nazis, including priest that protected Jews, second in deaths only to the Jewish population during the war.

@R0bbiam Exactly - I totally agree with you. What I was trying to say is that people tend to forget that there are other implicants in the matter - as if for example, Pope Pius XII had confronted Hitler directly, it would be a death sentence to the already hated Catholic community in Nazi Germany. But noone ever seems to mention that.

Not only the Holy Father, but the church itself was under attack in all ways. The stories and factual events are countless of a living church that sheltered people, yes of Jewish descent, away in hiding and smuggling them out in numbers. There are Jews alive today and their descendents thanx to the Catholic churh. Could they have done it better? Of course, we all could have done better looking back, but make no mistake about it the Catholic church was the ONLY refuge for many.

Grandpa needs to come off the bottle, and back to reality. I'm not of Jewish descent but when you relate the holocaust to fantasy and fiction it is rather obvious you're in denial. You denial is even further aggravated by stupidity, you cannot claim ignorance since you choose to ignore what your eyes see. Snap out of your hate, before it's too late for you.

@R0bbiam People kind of love to step away from that. People never, for example, say that the Pope had a cousin with Down syndrome who was sent to an extermination camp. And he was also drafted to the Hitler's Youth - like EVERY normal child in Nazi Germany. Not everyone loved the regime. Like my grandfather who was drafted into the "Mocidade Portuguesa" - Portuguese version of Hitler's Youth - and he truly hated it and the regime. People are only blind when it serves their purposes. Hypocrites.

the word "religion" has the same Latin root as the word "ligature" which means "bind together". The jews invent so many atrocity claims to bind themselves together since judaism itself is total fiction and would not exist without all of the fantasy persecution stories such as "The Holocaust". Jewish narratives are all about "escaping" or "tricking" the physically superior races. All jewish holidays celebrate those times when the jews were able to victimize everyone thru their demonry.

The Holy Father and his family were as much a victim of the Nazi as anyone else.

I'd say American pussy is 10/10. It is the most tasted pussy in the world. Everyone has, at least once, tasted white American pussy in their life, even terrorists.

How good would you rate the taste of hispanic pussy compared to other ethnic groups?  I'd say it's 9/10. And yes I said this on a religious video.
