The actual article shows the Catholic Church's positions on WWII are fairly involved and complex, I don't think it's correct to call it lying as such and in this case. There are much more clear and blatant cases of lying (eg. the Pope on condoms as a way to prevent HIV transmission)!

Disgusting. But what do you expect from religion? Continuous coverup of truth by lies. Have you seen the film <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amen._(film)" rel="nofollow">Amen</a> by Costa Gavras? I thought it was very good, saw it myself once and then took my (now late) father to the cinema to see it again. The central character is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_Gerstein" rel="nofollow">Kurt Gerstein</a> who witnessed the atrocities and tried to notify the world about them, including the Catholic Church; but he received little if any response. He wrote about this at the Gerstein Report. Is the Pope rewriting Holocaust history?
