It is the same today in the United States, and John Paul II must deal with the same sort. You get more bizarre by the day.
American Catholics are now akin to Nazi sympathizers?

And who were the Nazi sympathizers? Many an honest butcher or baker. Many a country curate. Many a school master. Good Catholics, but Bavarians first and Germans second who did not see anything terribly wrong with enrolling their children in the Hitlerjugend. Of course for every one who thought that the Nazis were on to something, there were many more who were simply fearful, careful not to say the wrong thing.

American Catholics are now akin to Nazi sympathizers? Once the likes of Hesburgh at Notre Dame began to cooperate with the Rockefellers -- and folks like Father Hanley speaking "as Catholics" before Congressional panels on plans for George H. Bush "population control" and "a healthcare mechanism" family planning and other pop-control measures -- indeed, AmChurch began to sympathize with the Nazis every bit as effectively, or more, than the likes of Margaret Sanger.
If you wish more in the way of detail, I'm happy to oblige.
