Zone1 Rabbi converts to Catholicism, largely because of the (at that time REAL) pope

The conversion of Rabbi Zolli

Israel Zolli was a well-respected Jewish scriptural scholar and Chief Rabbi in Rome. Through his studies of the Old Testament and inspired by the efforts of Pope Pius XII to save Jews, he converted to the Catholic Faith in 1945, taking the name Eugenio in honor of the pontiff.

this is an interesting story of a man who lost everything when he converted to Catholicism, which as per this article, he did not do lightly. He knew the Scriptures and had been studying them for a long time.. It is laughable that he was accused of going the CC for some kind of "gain."

Well, I know what it's like to be attacked for being Catholic..

 

[Mindful]

It still would not have saved him from the gas chambers.

A sobering thougot.

I have the utmost respect for people like this, that is, giving up everything for their God.

Amazing.

Something that shows how much LYING there is in the world is this:

Pius XII has been vilified and raked over the coals for decades now, for not doing much for the Jews when in actuality, he helped them a lot. He had the monasteries opened up to house them and even the VATICAN.

But that shows how much malice there is in society in general against the Catholic Church. Of course in those days, it really WAS Catholic...

If that poster is trying to imply that the guy went to the gas chamber.. I don't that is true. I am just now reading up on this guy, so I will inform everyone if I hear of such but I don't think he was killed that way. No, wait.. I know he wasn't because this article was written the year the war ended.

If you mean me? I didn’t imply anything.

A visit to Dachau would be helpful. Now an informative museum, it documents all the categories of prisoners. There was a section for Roman Catholic priests, whose parents were most likely Jews.

why were they most likely Jews?

I don't get it. I did know about priests being murdered by the Nazis.. Fr Maximallian Kolbe stands out

why were they most likely Jews?

I don’t know. They just were.

 

[notmyfault2020]

I don’t know. They just were.

so you don't know how you know they were the children of Jews?

I’m not getting in to this line of discourse. It’s far too prevalent on this talk board.
