The Church against Hitler (part 2 - Von Galen 1)

"Etiam omnes ego non".
Even if the superficiality of the modern reading of history could say that all knew about the tragedy of Nazi ideology and that they didn't do nothing, it's totally wrong. There were a lot of people, men of faith, who didn't accept that reality trying to do their best to save their country and the human being from that folly. From the euthanasia for the "unworthy ones to live" (a still relevant problem for our time!), to the massacre into the lagers.

Hi Darsham! Excellent videos. Your English grammar needs a little improvement, but you're doing a great deed for us Americans. I don't think we would have access to this, if it wasn't for your effort. It is especially important, as Senator Obama and his running mate Joseph Biden (supposedly Catholic) who supports abortion rights are seeking to continue the Culture of Death in our country. Thanks again!

It's a pleasure, I know my English is not good but the important is to give the general idea, the general meaning of these videos...

bonita la película... nos habla acerca de la aktion t4. este nombre,que parece de insecticida,es un plan para matar a los discapacitados. y los "improductivos" en general. además,nos habla sobre la objeción de conciencia para las órdenes injustas que no se pueden ni deben obedecer. porque como dice la sentencia latina que encabeza este video:Aunque todos lo hagan,yo no.

Pio XII 6:28 Papa Pacelli, Alto, regio, un hombre santo, de paso firme y directo, abriendose paso mostrando la dignidad de un Principe de la Iglesia... Pio XII un Papa extraordinario

@bigbossman999 Think that this video has been put together by an Italian journalist: Paolo Mieli (Director at the time of the "CORRIERE DELLA SERA" the most prestigious italian newspaper) who happens to be Jewish.

The Church had to bear in mind the safety of all the Germans of catholic faith. Hitler was not fooling around. He had the daughter of the king of Italy arrested and put to death in a concentration camp although she was married to a German Prince.

I'm sorry but you are aware that the catholic church made it LAW to celebrate hitlers bday every year, even until 1945 and that the only nazi ever excomunicated by the church was Goebels...for marrying a protestent. Give me a break, the catholic church has been condmened and rightfully so by millions around the world and historians for their support and appeasement of the nazi's.

@darsham

I love the Italian track with the English subtitles. I have learned much Italian from your videos already! Thank you so much for all the work you do in translating the videos and posting them for us.

After the initialing of the treaty on 14 July, the Cabinet minutes record Hitler as saying that the concordat had created an atmosphere of confidence that would be "especially significant in the struggle against international Jewry." In essence, he was claiming that the Catholic Church had publicly given its blessing, at home and abroad, to the policies of National Socialism, including its anti-Semitic stand.

general idea does not match facts written on paper by the catholic with hitler!!!
