Before Hitler came to power the Catholic Church spread anti-Jewish remarks. They spread hate agents Jews saying that they killed Jesus. This is not the act of just one crazy pope but a ton of popes over a long period of time. All the religious lies and hate piled up. Then a large depression came to Germany. Money was worthless, and was used as fire wood. It took millions of dollars just to buy a piece of bread. Then hitter came to power in the madness and well.... you know the rest. I think we can all safely say that if there was no Catholic church there would be no holocaust. Also we know Hitler was a Roman Catholic (not an atheist like most people say) so who know perhaps Hitler would not have even hated Jews if the Catholic church did not exist. Comment
Comment by Glen Rosenberg on May 19, 2011 at 11:16pm I agree with you, Full Metal.
Church is responsible for institutionalized anti-semitism. The sine qua non of persecution against Jews, pogroms, and the holocaust. And for good measure the Cardinals protected nazis post-war and gave them new identities.
But hey, without the influence of the church, can you imagine the bad state of morality.
