Pope On Anal Rape And Holocaust Denial
THE Pope was in the Hitler Youth - but only because he was obeying orders. Now Pope Benedict XVI has revoked the 1988 excommunication of four clerics who lead a breakaway ultra-traditionalist Catholic group - among them is British-born Holocaust denier Richard Williamson.
The world reacts to news that - shock of shocks - German head of Catholic church might not like Jews.
Adding that just because a young boy goes into a room with a priest and emerges hours later with his backside bleeding and a look of terror writ on his face does not offer ANY proof that anything untoward has goen on. We must look at the facts!
Last Wednesday, he told Swedish television he did not believe there were Nazi gas chamgers and that only 300,000 Jews died in concentration camps, instead of six million.
“There was not one Jew killed by the gas chambers. It was all lies, lies, lies!” he said…
Vatican chief spokesman Father Federico Lombardi said Williamson’s comments were “completely extraneous” to the lifting of the excommunications.
“(This act) has nothing to do with the personal opinions of a person, which are open to criticism, but are not pertinent to this decree,” he said.
But criticism was loud from many corners, even outside of Europe.
“For any Catholic clergy to embrace the anti-Semitic Holocaust denier is obscene,” said Abe Foxman, director of the Anti-Defamation League in the United States.
“It would be an insult to Catholic-Jewish relations and the memory of the millions of Jews who perished because they were Jews.”
“The reinstatement is an internal Church matter…[however] denial of the Holocaust not only insults the survivors, memory of the victims, and the Righteous Among the Nations who risked their lives to rescue Jews, it is a brutal attack on truth,” a statement released by Yad Vashem said.

Pope on Wheels, which gives new meaning to the Popemobile, presents a zaftig man (in ecumenical attire that looks more like a clown suit) sitting in a tobogganlike device. Large wagon wheels are attached directly to his hips, and his feet are crammed into the front of the vehicle — a rabbit’s head. Byrne has employed surrealism to deflate religious pomposity.
The Simon Wiesenthal Center denounced Pope Benedict XVI’s decision to remove the excommunication of four Bishops of the Society of Saint Pius X(SSPX)– one of whose leaders, British Bishop Richard Williamson publicly declared last week that no Jews were murdered in Nazi Gas Chambers and that only 300,000 Jews died in WWII.
“Just as the world joins together on January 27th to commemorate the extermination of 6 million Jews, the Vatican welcomes back into its ranks a Bishop who teaches that it never happened.
Or not:
Whatever his intention, the Pope’s decision to welcome back such a hater into the Church lends moral credence to deniers of history’s worst crime and contradicts of the teachings of Vatican II, which as then Monsignor Ratzinger, today’s Pope played so important a role, ” charged Rabbis Marvin Hier and Abraham Cooper, founder and dean and associate dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center.
In other news, bears have been found shitting in woods.

Very few, including many catholics, realize that there is the tradition vs new church of Vatican II (modernism,etc.) which has been infiltrated by the enemies of Christ who are at odds with each other and it didn’t start with Pope Benedict XVI. The restoration of tradition will happen when the consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary is done as requested by Our Lady of Fatima. See http://www.fatima.org for more information.

The lessons of youth die a hard death, don’t they IL Papa. “Seig Heil” still lives.
We should not forget that hitler was born a catholic in a catholic country, and it was the church that gave the world the hatred of Jesus own people, the Jews. A hatred that hitler exploited to give the world 50 million deaths including the holocaust.
And with the current pope, seeing the church’s hatreds against gays coming tumbling down around the world, they are paranoid. They fear they will be exposed for what they are - tyrants and liars, What they are is master psychologists using terror and fear and fairy tales, empowered by the victimization via hatred of an innocent group, This is simply using mankinds worst failing described in two words - irrational hate,. for power
Of course the church is paranoid. Virtually all of the western world except italy, Greece, and much of the USA, have embraced gay rights including ‘marriage’, though often by a name such as civil unions, etc. Days ago Columbia - the mechanism is common law marriage with all the legal rights for gay people. Nepal a couple weeks ago- marriage. Ireland - almost certainly will have civil unions this year, like Englands. And Norwegian gay marriage became legal Jan 1 2009. Swedish gay marriage will most likely happen this year, though the change is semantic, as Swedes have gay civil unions equivalent to marriage. Partial civil unions in Australia. The church won here in Calif (but by a much smaller margin then before, but lost in Connecticut.
The pope feels the church stands on a precipice. It is a precipice built of old religious hatreds, victimizations etc etc. Built all by the church. And ground built on hatred and lies, will and is crumbling. Just as a majority of Catholics voted for Obama despite his supporting abortion rights and civil unions for gays. And 94% of Catholics, use artificial birth control, because they realize that uncontrolled population growth is a threat to the world’s stability, eg think of oil, etc etc.
And the Pope’s former job, something about keeping the doctrine of the church “pure”, was described to me by a good Catholic as the group that is the remnant of the Inquisition, the monstrosity that murdered tens of thousands for daring to challenge the pope eg the earth was flat. And included in those victims were many priests who wanted to modernize the church.
So the pope and gays, and now Jews again - the issue is not gay marriage, the issue is not the Holocaust, or denial of it (the church did precious little re the Jews then). The issue is keeping it’s tyrannical power over it’s believers, and fo course keeping the money flowing. That is what the whole thing is about. The twub roots of all evil - power and money.
I give thanks to God that I am free and clear of this church. I am still trying to get excommunicated.
It is about time that someone sold bumper stickers - “excommunicated and proud of it”. Or “excommunitcated - free at last”
And all the ranting about abortion and a womans right to choose - This is the church’s trump card in their minds. It is not abortion that comes first per se, but it energizes their orthodoxy group, and hides their other immoralities and crimes in the sound bite. Virtually the entire northern hemisphere of the world, with a few exceptions, allow for abortion. Only parts of Africa, the middle east, and parts of south America drive it underground.
And the other part of the abortion issue is that more people = more power in the mind of the church. Perhaps il papa learned this one in his youth, when hitler called upon german women to have more babies. Why - he needed more soldiers for the Wehrmacht. - usage meaning the german army, though the translation was “”defense forces” whew on that one also.”
Someday the world may honor Benedict - as the man who unwittingly gave the church it’s next reformation. Its good parishoners may finally realized it had become a travestby before God, headed to a fate of preaching only to the dust in the pews, and the dust of their departed. And they might yet save it, or it’s churches will become museums showing the world how it was one of mankinds worst nightmares.

Er, it’s difficult to believe that the Pope is a naive ingenue who just didn’t realise how it would look; it’s not as of we are talking about a Pope chosen from outside the power structure. The guy’s career was almost entirely in the Vatican, and when he chose to revoke the excommunication of these 4 individuals he knew exactly the effect it would have.
He just regards the “good old days” as being something that should return…

He was the wrong choice for a figurehead. He never seems to learn that the media will take your words out of context and jump to immediate conclusions about your actions - so you have to think about how it will look.
I love the Catholic Church - so I hate that people have such a stereotyped view of who and what we are - but by the same token, politically, I don’t want it to have power - so maybe a bit of stigma is worth it in the long run (there’s a billion of us, so it’s not possible to wipe us out - unlike other vulnerable groups).

I miss little Karol Wojtyla, and I’m not even Catholic. Benedict was a terrible choice for Pope. The He-Just-Doesn’t-See of Rome.

There is forgiving and forgetting, but in this case the RC Church was not martyred, so they are hardly in a position to forgive.
