"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.

The letters thread is now closed.

Hmm

What a massive tool.

Saggy

It is irrelevant. The documentary and physical evidence supporting the fact of the Holocaust in WWII is solid, and convincing. I don't give a shit what anybody claims about WWI, I don't even need to look at the evidence you cite. That is because we aren't talking about this alleged WWI event, we are talking about WWII. Try and keep up, and stay focused.

Even if your assertion is correct, it is irrelevant to the documentary evidence supporting the Nazi extermination of homosexuals, anarchists, communists, gypsies, and Jews during WWII. I'm not going to bother with WWI. That is another discussion. Not this discussion. And there were still no Nazis during WWI. Ever see the Eddie Izzard comedy act Dressed to Kill? You're throwing Zooms.

Myths...

I agree with the other commenters--if he can believe in the

Christ myth, surely he can believe in the holocaust myth too.

This is ridiculous: throw this buffoon out already!

The Holocaust is a fact. Bishop Williamson is a bigoted ignoramus. Why are serious people spending time debating this creep's fate?

There are serious questions and problems facing the world, and this creep is just getting in the way. Kick him out of the Catholic hierarchy and be done with it (and force him to earn his living for a change).

My dear Paulpsd7,

ARE YOU SUGGESTING THAT MY PENIS SIZE HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT?

The thought that Al Gore chose me for that task because of the size of my penis is an interesting conceit but you will have to provide some hard evidence of the Federal Government's interest in my penis such as is easily documented in the cases of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and John Dillinger. I was involved in only one of those cases, but my member was not involved.

For the record, I own neither a sports car nor a Hummer.

No government agency has requested the aid of my member or to my knowledge have inquired about it or its activities except for Janet and I am pretty sure that was the real thing - unless I have been the victim of a conspiracy!

That would be ironic.

Thank you for your interest and thoughts concerning my member.

Stinks

ARE YOU SUGGESTING THAT MY PENIS SIZE HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT?

For the record, I see the claim that Al Gore asked you to be a part of a big conspiracy as the biggest crock of shit I've read online in some time. And, let's face it, that's saying something.

So, considering your comment and how you had to include "big ones," I couldn't resist some speculation on what you're really compensating for by spinning such a laughable yarn.

I admit, it's probably more likely you came up with that one to give yourself an enlarged sense of self-importance rather than the perception of having a big dick. But ya never know.

Diversion

When someone is doing something really bad and evil, they really should point their finger at someone else and loudly proclaim how bad and evil someone else is rather than themselves.

The Holocaust was 5 years of evil hell.

The Palestinians have had 60 years of evil hell.

Keep distracting us from the current criminal and evil actions against innocent human beings.

Call anyone who isn't distracted an anti-semite and Jew-hater.

B.I.O.Y.A.

We are all Jews in this country.

Except for the Buddhists and the Hindus. Scientologists? Forgetaboutit!

Gordon, Hitler was Right, Wagner: We've done all that.

Ground-sensing radar can tell us where the mass graves are/were. It must be some lost Nazi secret as to how they could have dug up mass graves and then left the soil identical to undisturbed-since-the-last-Ice-Age soil. An amazing feat of restoration.

We know where the camps are, we have already used ground-sensing radar to confirm locations, and soil tests, and finding human bones and other remains.

There is no reason any nation on Earth would not welcome a thorough, international and 100% transparent forensic accounting of the "Nazi Death Camps."

What people object to, is after a 100% transparent forensic accounting, people like you just ignore it.

No need to "question" Holocaust figures once every shred of evidence has been cataloged.

We'll never know every shred of evidence for any historical event, much less one that involves millions of people such as the Holocaust.

I guess you deny that World War Two actually happened, because we certainly don't have every shred of evidence from that conflict.

I guess there is the slight possibility that the Holocaust figures have been vastly inflated to gain sway over world opinion. Let's conduct the research I've outlined and learn the truth of the matter once and for all.

We know approximately what the death count is, verified from various sources.

Any conceivable arguments against doing this?

-- Gordon Wagner

That none of this matters to people like you who ignorantly state that we don't know where the camps are, despite the fact we do. If someone runs a test, and you don't agree with the outcome, you simply pretend the test never happened. It's like all evidence you can't explain, you simply pretend it doesn't exist.

Konnie, not all had their pictures taken

Everyone who was locked up there had to have their photo taken, and those photos line every wall of every barrack.

That's untrue.

Only those who stayed at Auschwitz I were listed in the logs, marked and had their pictures taken. This is a small minority of those sent to the facility.

Most were processed directly to Auschwitz II, where they were exterminated that day. These didn't have their pictures taken, nor were they logged.

Even the hanging trees and firing squads were reserved for those at camp I, and plenty of people died at camp one, but camp II is the extermination camp.

My dear paulpsd7,

I can tell that the penis is very important to you.

It is the circumcision that does that.

It is key to why people are so screwed up.

It makes them easy to control.

A LIE has to be pretty good to whack off part of your body.

It even has to be even better for you to do it to your babies.

Only barbaric savages would do that to a woman child.

Only barbaric savages would NOT do that to a man child.

You can get man apes to buy that lie you can get them to do anything and kill anyone.

Gore is not president. I stopped that twice.
