Archbishop Labels Denial of Holocaust® A 'Sacrilege' Archbishop of Westminster Labels Holocaust Denial as 'Sacrilege' The Universe Catholic Newspaper Monday, 23 January 2006 LONDON —The Archbishop of Westminster, Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor has said that Holocaust Denial is tantamount to "sacrilege" after he issued a message of solidarity to Britain's Jewish community ahead of of Holocaust Memorial Day, on January 27, 2006. Celebrations of Holocaust Memorial Day, have been somewhat soured for the second year running, by the official non-participation of the Muslim Council of Great Britain at the event, but Cardinal Cormac Murph-O'Connor recently expressed his own happiness at attending the event, and recounted his own impressions after a visit to what remains of the Auschwitz concentration camp. "History's greatest evil remains barely graspable by the human mind. But I glimpsed something of it at a visit once to Auschwitz, where a room contained suitcases stamped with the initials of those who were taken to the gas chamber. Their suitcases, and their names, were stripped from them: the Jews and others whom the Nazis scapegoated had to be dehumanized in order to be slaughtered. The warning is clear: wherever dehumanisation takes hold, terrible evil is sure to follow." "That is why the message of the Shoah remains one of the defense of the God-given intrinsic dignity of all human beings, of which the right to life is the primordial. This is a right which comes with birth; it is not a concession of the state or the law. It cannot be given and taken away. It is the indelible mark of God in us, and its denial is a sacrilege." "The Catholic Church solemnly teaches that Jesus was a descendant of David (the Jew); that Mary and the Apostles belonged to the Jewish people; that the Church is nourished by its roots in Judaism; and that the Jews are our 'elder brothers and sisters' in faith. The Catholic people of the world stand with Jews against anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial, and in defense of the God-given dignity of all human beings. We are one human family: today's commemoration is especially that of the Jewish people, but it is also that of the victims of genocide everywhere and throughout history. We can never forget."

First my Church was sodomized. Now it's being Judaized. I'm not going to stand for it---the Catholic Church is going to keep losing parishioners over nonsense like this.
