- What do you mean by making contracts with Hitler? Do you mean the
- the Pope made a contract with Hitler to kill non-Christians or to
- espouse the superiority of the Aryan race?

- Sorry, this is pure nonsense. Hitler's actions were not only in
- direct violation of Jesus's teaching but also against the law and
- norms of the RC Church in his day as well as today. If you would
- like Scriptural and/or RC canon law references, I would be happy
- to do so, although we probably should continue such an exchange in
- another forum such as Email.
