text: "Von Papen was Catholic. The connection ends there."
  
  I rarely reply to others. I have my say and let everyone have their say. Sites which host are not used to argue, most sites ask user to not do that. Also, it's a waste of limited bandwidth.  
  However I will respond. The church was aligned with Hitler. Thus it made it much easier for Hitler (Shicklegruber a Catholic) to begin and wage WWII. Hitler did huge amounts of war-death-kill, as the GOP. 
  The church was aligned with Hitler before during and even after WWI. The church provided a hiding place, food, medical attention and passport papers for them. 
  In return for it's alignment the church got to attack Jews, Communists, Socialists and unions. 
  As we see the church can no longer raise armies or conduct hundreds or thousands of inquisitions ( Spanish, Roman and in every town and village throughout Europe.
  Now the church is tightly aligned with the Repubs to the destruction of America, the ME and throughout much of the world.
