Parents all over the world should name their children after the righteous gentiles who have received this award from Yad Vashem. Then teach the kids and everyone who asks about the names about the Righteous Among The Nations because everyone needs to know who they were and what they did during World War II.

I don't remember Bonhoeffer being about saving Jews. From what I read, his reasons were Christian ones.
That makes him a model Christian, but a model gentile?

and yet, YadVashem still does not recognize Bonhoeffer!.....& no, he most certainly did not oppose Hitler for merely or even primarily reasons in support of Christians
