Just because he was raised a catholic, studied in a convent etc, does not make him a Catholic. I went to a convent school, a catholic high school and a Christian college but look what happened to me ;-) However, no one can deny the strong legacy of Christianity's past in setting the seeds of anti-Semitism. The Nazis would not have been able to do what they did, were it not for broad based support from large swathes of society - in Germany and the territories they occupied. It is no secret that this form of intolerance was for the most part only observed in Christian dominated societies, though it has now unfortunately found roots in many parts of the Islamic world as well, thanks to the ongoing Palestinian crisis. Conversely the claim by Gilbert that you are an anti-catholic is quite preposterous. This is all the more ironic given Gilbert's rash statement that actually defended the Nazi regime for the first half of its rule! I guess anti-semitism and bigotry was ok so long as the Nazis did not invade anyone! It seems that Gilbert's fanatical and rather narrow-minded view of his religion does not allow him to logically analyze questionable events from Christianity's past. Hence for example, his denial of the destruction of the Hindu templs in Goa. As they say, you cant teach an old dog new tricks.
