"I will not travel to Auschwitz"

Catholic bishop Richard Williamson says he is willing to "review the historical evidence" about whether the Holocaust occurred, but rejects the suggestion that he visit a concentration camp.

Every great myth...

Every great myth is a mixture of truth, exagerations and outright lies. The "holocaust" is no exception. The defenders of the myth should focus on the truths and stop wasting their credibilty on the exagerations and lies. The gas chamber tale may well fall in the area of discussion that needs to be quietly abandoned. With the falsehoods of the holocaust myth makers, the crimes against humanity committed by the State of Israel, and the hi-jacking of American foreign policy, a wave of anti-semitism in the near future is virtually assured.

Stinky and the others have a point

Have you ever talked face-to-face with a person who was killed by the Nazis? Huh? HAVE YOU???

Well, that proves their point.

Why would the Nazi "victims" disappear unless they had something to hide?

that's exactly right

how come if so many jews were killed by the nazis, you never meet one who was? only those who survived? aha, the achilles heel of their plan for world domination, starting with gaza. as is well known, the nation which controls gaza controls the world.

(this is supposed to be sarcastic, but i know i can't come close to what the nutcases post in all seriousness)

what a disappointment

after john paul II, the pendulum has indeed swung in this, as so many other matters.

Auschwitz Maps at Air Photo Evidence

In place of visiting Auschwitz, Williamson can link to Air Photo Evidence by a Canadian Geologist which is the only site on-line that has coloured maps with descriptions of Auschwitz-One and Auschwitz-Birkenau camps drawn from aerial photogrphs taken from April to December, 1944, by British and U.S. air photo planes.

Gore is not president. I stopped that twice.

Stop...yer killing me. You're going to start talking about Obama's birth certificate soon, I can feel it coming.

dumbass

"even though no one saved more Jews during the Nazi period than he did"

Wait, was that the Nazi period where nothing happened?

@Stinks

"I plan and carry out conspiracies - big ones."

Reminds me of

"This sad little lizard told me that he was a brontosaurus on his mother's side. I did not laugh; people who boast of ancestry often have little else to sustain them. Humoring them costs nothing and adds happiness in a world in which happiness is always in short supply." -Lazarus Long

So I am going to leave you alone now. I would hate to risk the ire of such a potent individual. I hope I haven't offended you.

@renegade iconoclast

renegade iconoclast: "Really, are you that blind? Stinks isn't having a legit disagreement, he's making up strawman arguments and lying about what people say, just like he does with every one of his tinfoil hat conspiracy theories."

huh? i didn't say anything in reference to what something stinks wrote.

My dear paulpsd7,

The BO is water under the bridge, He has been sworn in and he is the President.

No one will ever see the original birth certificate.

His aunt will get to stay. His brother will not be prosecuted.

Most people swore he was a Liberal and would get us out of Iraq and end war.

Dude, I rigged the election for Bush in 2000 so I am really getting a kick out of Obama, now that the constitutional issue has been rendered moot. I wanted another Bush and we got one.

While I am opposed to war, I am no opposed to the dissolution of American wealth, power and influence as this seems to have always been a bad thing for everyone else. The bailout is looting our country and quite frankly, as stupid and banal as most americans are, we deserve it. Those Jobs were lost under Clinton and placeholder make work jobs have been tiding people over all this time but the real jobs were sent overseas to save money and make more profit. Those jobs were for all practical purposes, welfare. Now it is time to get people in the military for the next wars, and most of those poor dumb bastards voted for war anyway so screw them. The government is going to do a lot worse than screw them. Read the article about them? Those drugs are mind control drugs - they are not medicine and not beneficial. Yes, just another conspiracy and George Bush Sr. ran the company that makes Prozac from 1976-1978 and the fact that the MSM has kept that from the public is no conspiracy, they just don't think you needed to know about it - all of them.

Heroes, Chuck, The Pretender, Dark Angel address a certain group and class of people. Fringe mentioned the drug last episode - one that restores plasticity to a preimprint and circuit culling stage - I have been modified and enhanced and I assume that many other have been as well. Having our experiences and words quoted in teleplays is amusing. I started watching the X-files after my employ there. They had me convinced I could do amazing things. I never was presented with a reason for not believing it either. They didn't teach me to do elections, I figured that out on my own.

Quick, how many people died in world war 2?

Is Anyone Surprised By Any of This?

The Pope was a member of Hitler Youth, he wants to beatify the Pope who was pontiff during the Holocaust (the one condemned on a placard at Yam Vashem), he has revived the offensive Good Friday prayer that Jews might avoid Hell by turning to Christ which had been banned for decades, and now he is rehabilitating a man who said "there was no Nazi policy to systemically kill Jews." Williamson never said no Jews died, he just made the historically incorrect that some Jews died but not as a result of Nazi policies to kill them. By welcoming Williamson back into the Church (who still has not repented for breaking the Catholic law of questioning the infallibility of the Pope and ordaining men outside the rules of the Church),Pope Benedict is just reviving old Catholic policies. Remember the Inquisition? Emperor Leo? Pope Gregory X's "blood libel," which survives to this day? Catholic higher ups even extended their hatred of Jews to India. This is nothing new. I think that the world should just accept hatred of Jews as part of Catholic dogma and move on with it.

The Catholic church is a criminal organization in the US. It conspired to commit sexual atrocities upon children for decades. The church never reported child abuse to the authorities, they shuttled one abuser from one parish to another to assure he would go undetected and abuse more children. Those victims have become abusers themselves, drug addicts, alcoholics, depressed, suicidal, suicides, and broken people in general. The Catholic church has never so much as punished the higher ups who were responsible for it. Hell, they even haggled over money (one of the Catholic stereotypes of Jews)that would fall far short of compensating their victims.

The Catholic church denies the Holocaust just as it denies the violation of children. Why? Because it helps reconcile their evil deeds with the "infallible" Pontiff who has the ear of God. God couldn't be that evil could he? Or maybe the Pope's bullshit is just that.

It should be noted, however, that Williamson's anti-Jewish (I reject the term anti-semitic because Muslims, Christians, Jews, and others are Semitic people too) feelings should have nothing to do with Nazism. Indeed, if he is a Nazi sympathizer then he is not a worthy to be a priest. The Nazis were a godless people who believed in the occult, were anti-Christian, and anti-Catholic. That this man claims to be a true Catholic yet sides with men and women who practiced witchcraft and hated Christians. Hey, is somethingstinks the same person as this Williamson nut?
