Practically every Catholic document in the public domain -- patrology, history of the popes,

and goes on for miles:http://www.documentacatholicaomnia.eu/_index.html

Fittingly the site is in Latin, but first of all it's church Latin, and secondly it's a little bit modernish. Worst comes to worst scroll way down to the tabs to read info in some other language that you may prefer.

Apologies if this has been posted before. New to me.

in the public domain. We can only imagine all the stuff kept under a tight umbrella of secrecy in the Vatican archives.

It's foolish to speak of a millenium when the topic is a six year period. Unless, of course, one wants to change the topic for a more comfortable subject.

And why are you whispering?

I could be wrong, but I think the point was that WWII isn't the only period with a stain on the RCC's record.

My point is that rather than imagine evidence regarding WWII, he should produce evidence for whatever point he was trying to make.

You, inadvertently I'm sure, misstated in #11 what I said: "You said WWII wasn't part of the past millennium."

I'm sure you innocently overlooked my actual words in #8: "These particular imaginary thoughts were about World War II, not the past millennium."

I'm sure you will understand the distinction on second thought.

Consider it a correction.

You're an attorney, right? Surely you know that A, not B implies that A and B are separate.

Is it really so hard for you to admit when you made a mistake?

Saying a post is about WWII and not the millennium is not saying WWII did not occur during the millennium.

Saying this is about your nose and not your face does not "imply" you do not have a face.

There is no honest implication. I can't say the same for your inference.

Is it really so hard for you to admit you are misstating another's words?

The direct implication of that statement is that World War II is not a part of the past millennium, especially when that statement is made in response to a comment about the Church's less-than-stellar record over the past millennium, in which it's actions and attitudes towards Nazi Germany are certainly a part.

I know this, you know this, anyone with a basic understanding of logic knows this, yet you persist.
