Are you aware in the past the Pope has joined the nazi's by signing the Nazi Oath? Will you call me a liar, or will you do your own reasearch? Is joining the Nazi's considered "infalable"? How can someone who joined the Nazi's be a leader of a church that claims it is the "One true Church" and that there isnt any salvation except by them?

I know you may not agree, but please do not curse. Let's be civilized. I have reported you for cursing.

The "True" Church is the body of believers (Christians) from around the entire world who are trusting in their faith in Jesus Christ alone. They do not need to join any organization to be saved. They accept the free gift of salvation, without any strings attached. Any church that says THEY are the only way to be saved, and not JESUS is the Only way is a liar. Read John 14:6, it say that JESUS is the only way.

As a teenager and young man, Pope Benedict XVI was drafted into the Hitler Youth and the Nazi German Army just like every other non-Jewish German male. He was not given a choice.
The Pope is not and never has been a Nazi. He unfortunately was born and grew up in a country ruled by the Nazi party.
Every draftee into the Hitler Youth and the Nazi German Army was not a Nazi.
Thank God that you and I live in a very different world that the Pope did in 1930s and 1940s Germany. Or do we?
By the way, Papal Infallibility only applies after a man becomes pope.
With love in Christ.

Oh, for crying out loud.
He was FORCED to be a member of Nazi youth, just like all other young people were FORCED to be a member of Nazi youth. And he was a CHILD, not an adult. You ought not hold it against him. He didn't volunteer, he didn't agree with Nazi philosophy, he was just obeying the law and he got out of it as quickly as he could. He never fired a gun, discriminated against a Jewish person or anything of the sort.
Do a little MORE research, please. And show a little mercy. Many of us who truly love Jesus as adults were forced to do things as children that were contrary to Christianity.
Since you're too lazy to go to Wikipedia, here' an excerpt:
"HJ membership became MANDATORY, under the Gesetz über die Hitlerjugend law. This legal obligation was re-affirmed in 1939 with the Jugenddienstpflicht and HJ membership was REQUIRED even when it was opposed by the member's parents.

I will call you a liar because you did not post the complete truth. The Pope was FORCED to join the Nazi Youth. Either join or watch your family be tortured and killed and then killed yourself.
Yes we know you HATE Jesus's TRUE CHURCH

You always have a choice no matter what situation you are in. No one can every tell you what to do, if someone put a gun to my head and told me to sing I can say yes and sing or no and die. Nonetheless it is a choice.

The "pope" is a false prophet with a false gospel that leads to eternal hell. All catholics believe it, but are not saved because of it.
The genocidal Vatican had many meetings with Hitler during WWII. Many believe that Hitler was taking orders on some level from the "pope" back then.

If the Nazi's held guns to your parents heads and said they would allow your family to live if you joined them what would YOU do?
And we do not believe you must be catholic inorder to get into heaven and see the glories of God. THAT, my dear, is a lie.
