"The statistics he cites are largely meaningless but the effect is to make the Shoah [Holocaust] just one detail in a century of massacres. It is part of an effort by some in the Catholic church to stop the Shoah being the most important event in the 20th century."

What the hell is this, dueling victimhoods? I find this more than a little disturbing.

There is a view that mentioning the Christians who have been slaughtered by communists denies the "uniqueness" of the Holocaust and is a sign of antisemitism. A nasty battle is going on over this in cyberspace so I won't link to anyone but the keywords are: ADL, Holocaust, uniqueness, unique.
