  These are the leaders of the group of people that killed millions of people world wide and stole their land, burnt 'witches', gays and blacks at the stake. Why is this so surprising?

  On the other hand I don't think that anyone should really be punished for not believing something, however warped that opinion may be.

  Sure, it's bad PR.

  But, really, what's excommunication from the Catholic Church got to do with the Holocaust anyway? They're entirely unrelated issues.

  • For instance, one's views on Stalin probably have nothing to do with whether one is a good bowler.– boobs1/3

    Might want to read up on 20th century European history boobs.– Horp2/3

    Being the leader of one of the largest religions on earth is a little different don't you think?– set3/3

  one's views on the persecution of members of another religion at a time when the two faiths are meant to be going through a process of reconciliation is massively significant though

  Especially because this pope was in the Hitler Youth.
  The shear symbolism of this act is just wrong.

  I don't understand why Catholics everywhere don't want to quit his stupid club.
  I'd be ashamed to align myself with this.

  • i quit that band long time ago, trying to get a couple of these altar boys at work to the same is fun– brandelec

  I find it highly amusing that there would be an issue regarding anti-semitism within the church, which was started - aahhhhhhnd correct me if I'm wrong - by probably the most famous Jew ever ?

  Look, the Holocaust denier is an absolute dick. He lives, mentally, in a land of utter fables. But, you know, believing in fables is good training for...aw, fuck it. Even I don't want to go there!

  Haha!

  To be honest though, its an open goal knocking the catholic church guys, can we not get onto lampooning a more difficult target, like zen Buddhism maybe?
