Brazilian Activist Accuses Pope of Nazi-Like Attacks on Gays

Many of the falsely named "family values" organizations - a number of which have been registered as ant-gay hate groups by the Southern Poverty Law Center - have long utilized anti-gay propaganda modeled on the Nazi campaign of almost 80 years ago against those of Jewish faith. Now, the Catholic Church hierarchy is joining in on the act. Fortunately, a Brazilian activist has accused Pope Benedict XVI of something similar to the Nazi propaganda given his disgusting statement that same sex marriage is a threat to the "future of humanity itself." Frankly, I'd make the argument that Benedict XVI is a larger threat to the future of humanity than the legal recognition of loving, committed same sex relationships. Brazilian politician and activist Jean Wyllys made his challenge in the Spanish site Ocio Gay where he equates Benedict's statement to the “The Jews are our misfortune!” meme used by the Nazi regime. Here is a translation of the Spanish via Google translation:

Benedict can not continue spreading hatred and prejudice against gays. You can not say that we only love, only to claim that if our love is respected and recognized, we are “a threat.” Moreover, because such words have a history. “The Jews are our misfortune!” (“Die Juden sind unser Unglück!”), The historian Heinrich von Treitschke, and that unfortunate expression, published in the German magazine Der Sturmer and then used as a slogan by the Nazis, ended in it ended. Homosexuals know: our fate in Nazi Germany, where Benedict XVI spent his youth, was the same as the Jews, only instead of the Star of David, which we identified in the concentration camps was the pink triangle. The tragedy of Nazism should have served to learn than the other, the different, not a threat, not a misfortune, not the enemy. And we, the homosexuals, do not threaten anyone. Our love is so beautiful and healthy as anyone. And we deserve the same respect and rights as anyone else.

In the same way as happens now with the “gay marriage”, marriage between whites and blacks, called at the time, “interracial marriage” – and was considered “unnatural and contrary to the law of God” and a threat civilization. In a 1966 ruling of a court in Virginia upheld its ban used these words: “Almighty God created the races white, black, yellow, malay and red and placed them on separate continents. The fact that he has separated the shows that he did not intend for the races to mix. ” The marriage of German “Aryan race” and was also banned Jews from Hitler. Even the evangelicals were denied the right to marriage in many countries for a long time, they were also a threat, the Catholic Church. It seems that some pastors do not remember, but it was so.

Given Benedict XVI's documented involvement in covering sex crimes against children and youths, the man for that alone ought to be behind bars. But now, reverting to Nazi-like conduct as he has done, Benedict XVI truly needs to be forced to abdicate from the thrown of St. Peter. He is a foul, nasty and morally bankrupt individual..
