Pope Pius and the nazis

Post by PaulSacramento »

So I found this interesting tirade on twitter over at "catholic geeks".
http://thecatholicgeeks.com/2015/12/14/ ... #more-1785

BUt the interesting part for me was this since I had heard about how the Pope and the RCC didn't do anything to help the Jews and were, basically, on the side of the Nazis, poste by Declan Finn:
