Pope's abortion-Holocaust remark panned
Items compiled from Tribune news services
Published February 20, 2005
FRANKFURT, GERMANY -- A German Jewish leader criticized the pope
Saturday for making what he called an unacceptable comparison between
abortion and the Holocaust in a new book.
Paul Spiegel, the head of Germany's Central Council of Jews, told the
Netzeitung daily that Pope John Paul II's comparison reflects similar
"unacceptable" statements made by Roman Catholic Cardinal Joachim
Meisner in Cologne.
Spiegel was referring to a passage in the pope's book, "Memory and
Identity: Conversations Between Millenniums," where the pontiff draws
a broad comparison between abortion and the Holocaust, saying both
came about when people decided to usurp "the law of God."

More evidence that the old guy has lost it and needs to step down.
Comparing women who seek abortion to the Nazis is ridiculous.

Yep, abortion has already been labeled the "American Holocaust".
