one of the most interesting memories I have with my father deals with Cologne Cathedral...My parents came to Germany in 1981 and we went to Cologne...the three of us started up the spire and my mother stopped about 2/3 of the way up...
My dad was absolutely bound and determined to get to the top and he virtually double timed up to the top...looking back now, he was simply doing something that I don't think he had the chance to do in 1945...when I asked him what streets were open when he was there, he pointed out a single street

If people read the bible they wouldn't remain a Catholic for long.
That's funny considering it was the Catholic Church who put the Bible together at the Synod of Rome (382), the Council of Hippo (393) and the Council of Carthage (397). And then it was St. Jerome who was personally commissioned by Pope Damasus I to write the first translation of the full Bible.
But what do those filthy Catholics know about the Bible

Too many really.. This is a fav...
Have some Tea.
One of the unsung heros of WWII.. The AMerican Mule. Notice the soldier are carrying the WWI Springfield 1903. Most likely rear echelon Italy
This photo is amazing... You can see the engine on fire, and the cockpit filled with smoke... Most likely the pilot is dead... The gunner in the rear is looking at the the water contemplating what to do or what will happen next... The gunner went down with the plane.
US Soldier sharing his Christmas package with Italian Children.

As a devout Catholic that ardently and regularly defends the Church against vilely anti-Catholic people...
... can we all agree not to hijack this thread with a religious debate?
This thread has HUGE potential. I'm enjoying it immensely and hoping we can stay on track.
OK...

It is a well known statement that started in WWI, I believe. I didn't fight in any wars, but I can read.

Congrats on not seeing the commonality of all Christianity and going straight for the bigotry

I understand what you are saying, but no need for that in this thread.
