I find it odd

that so many, who disagree with the Catholic Church and who don't believe in Catholic saints, are so quick to criticize this man:

Catholic scholars warn against canonisation of Pope Pius XII

when the truth is that we now find that many governments knew a great deal more about the 'final solution' than they admitted to at the time, and still they refused to do anything until their own interests were threatened (yes, you can infer that I'm refering to the U.S. here, for one)...

History should be kinder to him than to these countries, but he's dead and can't speak while these countries constantly revise history to favour themselves...

(I'm not necessarily in favour of making popes saints, but in this case I'll post a photograph of him, just because some people are really unfair...)
