These accusations have not only been disproved, they have been shown to be disinformation instigated by the Soviets and the East Germans.
But the haters like the NYT and Jewish leaders who should know better keep the lie alive.
I think there is that (liberals hating Christians in general) and I think there is legitimate concern stemming from incomplete information that permits such rumors to exists.
The process of opening the archives that show what happened is in process; no time like the present to crack it open wide.
If there’s no truth to it, then the Vatican should have gotten these archives catalogued and opened to outside scholars a long time ago. Instead they’re saying they just can’t possibly get it done until 2014 — 56 YEARS after Pius’ death. A heck of a lot of redacting and disappearing can be done in 56 years.
We never hear these armchair quarterbacks lay out a realistic plan for what Pope Pius XII might have done differently. Instead they ignore the fact that Pius is credited with SAVING a million Jews. Or the fact that the top two Jewish minds from that period (Albery Einstein and Golda Meir) single him out for his work. The people who have a problem with Pius XII sound to me like they have deeper problems with Catholicism.
It’s none of their damn business what the Church does.
I asked the Jews not to vote for zer0, guess what they told me?
