I note you have invoked the Julius Streicher defense for your client and wonder if you agree that Streicher received fair justice. I also note you have implicitly allowed justification by works, which was big of you. You err in attributing the Nazis to the Catholics. You should know it was primarily the German Lutherans who gave them power in 1932.

He was acquitted of crimes against peace, but found guilty of crimes against humanity, and sentenced to death on 1 October 1946. The judgment against him read, in part:

"... For his 25 years of speaking, writing and preaching hatred of the Jews, Streicher was widely known as 'Jew-Baiter Number One.' In his speeches and articles, week after week, month after month, he infected the German mind with the virus of anti-Semitism, and incited the German people to active persecution. ... Streicher's incitement to murder and extermination at the time when Jews in the East were being killed under the most horrible conditions clearly constitutes persecution on political and racial grounds in connection with war crimes, as defined by the Charter, and constitutes a crime against humanity.”[15]

Note taking isn't a strong suit of yours is it? If Streicher was hung, that seems fair.

I also note you have implicitly allowed justification by works, which was big of you.

I note you make big claims without proof sans a Nazi's testimony.

You err in attributing the Nazis to the Catholics.

I don't at all, your claim is the Nazis 'followed Luther's plan' for dealing with the Jews. To the extent you posted that 'plan' many key similarities between it and what the Nazis did were missing. OTOH OTC's practices pre and post Luther were much more in line with what ensued. And the OTC wasn't speaking of theory, they had practiced and to the extent possible perfected these practices. Missing from the plans of the OTC but adopted by the Nazis were the use of furnaces to get rid of the evidence. Apparently the OTC figured riverside bonfires would suffice followed by the dumping into the river. Exhumation then burning (after trial) was a key component of OTC 'justice'.

In light of the above and the continued OTC abuse of the Jews during the formative years of the Nazi party, I'm sure the nominal Catholic Hitler figured he had the Catholics in the bag. After all if their hierarchy practiced and condoned AS, how much more so the laity. Hence the appeal to Luther by the propaganda ministry under Goebbels.

Nice rap sheet on your 'witness'. I can see why you as a Catholic would rely on such a person to smear the whole life of a man dead 400 years for reason of an execrable polemic he had published. Anything to divert the eyes from the keeper of the AS 'flame' throughout the centuries, the OTC. Keep exercising your 'shovel ready' job on this subject. Lots of things are buried to the average lurker. Perhaps the non irony challenged can see it in light of a the claim of OTC that had Peter as first Pope but then could have descended into the millenium + long practices it did. And the Saintly men who led the charge.

A job awaits in the 0bama admin for a man of such talent for massaging history.
