Here is the real history in "Facts and Documents Translated from the German" and published at the time.
Frontispiece from 'The Persecution of the Catholic Church in the Third Reich' published in 1940 by Burns Oates
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_persecution_of_the_Catholic_Ch...
Lying, atheist propaganda about Christians being in league with the Nazis - and that the Pope and Catholic Church were complicit in the persecution and of Jews has been propagated and spread by militant, atheist fanatics and other anti-Christian bigots since the end of the 2nd world war.
The truth ...
Hitler and the Nazis were pagan, naturalist, occultists with racial superiority and eugenics policies based on the writings of the German Darwinist, Ernst Haeckel.
They were haters of Christianity and, just like the atheists in all the brutal, communist regimes, their ultimate aim was to eliminate Christianity.
"We live in an era of the ultimate conflict with Christianity. It is part of the mission of the SS to give the German people in the next half century the non-Christian ideological foundations on which to lead and shape their lives. This task does not consist solely in overcoming an ideological opponent but must be accompanied at every step by a positive impetus: in this case that means the reconstruction of the German heritage in the widest and most comprehensive sense."
— Heinrich Himmler, 1937
Here is the real history in "Facts and Documents Translated from the German" and published at the time.
Frontispiece from 'The Persecution of the Catholic Church in the Third Reich' published in 1940 by Burns Oates

"The Persecution of the Catholic Church in the Third Reich" Published in 1940 is full (565 pages) of translated copies of original Nazi documents and cartoons lambasting the Church from the 1930's - 1940.
What about quotes from Hitler's writing and speeches, frequently presented by atheists, which allegedly show that Hitler supported Christianity?
It is well known that what Hitler said and what Hitler actually did were two entirely different things. Hitler didn't want to risk antagonising Christians in Germany. So he attempted to give the impression that he was on their side, however, the actions of the Hitler's National Socialist Party proved the exact opposite, as shown in this book.
And - even if Hitler claimed to be Christian, he couldn't have been, because he directly opposed the teaching of Jesus and the Church. This means he was an heretic and therefore would be automatically excommunicated.
Anyone who knows anything about Christianity knows that simply calling oneself Christian doesn't make one Christian. An heretic cannot be a Christian.
So Hitler and the Nazis were not Christian, they totally disregarded Christian, moral teaching and the Ten Commandments.
They believed in situational ethics and moral relativism (which is the essence of the atheist, Humanist Manifesto) just as Stalin, Mao and all the atheist tyrants of the 20th century did.
So Hitler's moral and ethical values were akin to atheist morals and ethics, inasmuch as they had no definitive yardstick. The Nazis abandoned the moral and ethical values of Christianity and were left with ephemeral ethics - which are reliant only on the situation, opinion or fashion. Just like the Humanist Manifesto, with no definitive, moral yardstick or inalienable, God-given rights, there can be no moral or ethical absolutes - right can be deemed to be wrong, and wrong can be deemed to be right. It varies according to the situation or what is judged to be 'necessary'. it is a recipe for tyranny.
Hitler was not strictly an atheist in belief, but he was similar in his ethical and moral relativism.
His ideology is best described as Darwinian inspired paganism. There are documents in this book which prove the Nazis were pagans, not Christians.
There are also documents reproduced in the book which prove that the Church hierarchy did not support the Nazis, that is why so many priests etc. were arrested, imprisoned and tortured on trumped-up charges.
So we know that, as Hitler rejected the teaching of Jesus on morals, he could not possibly be a Christian, regardless of what anyone claims.
The moral values of Christianity are the Ten Commandments and the values espoused in the teaching of Jesus and His Apostles.
Anyone who rejects those values, cannot claim to either be a Christian or to be acting as a Christian. They are based on two principles of loving God and loving one's neighbour (and even enemies) as oneself.
Every Christian has to aspire to those principles. If they fail through weakness they are guilty of sin, for which they can be forgiven with sincere repentance. If they deliberately reject those moral principles they forfeit the right to call themselves Christian. So, it is not possible for a true Christian to knowingly support a tyrannical regime such as the Nazis or the Communists, which murders, tortures or persecutes innocent people. If they do, they cease to be Christians, no matter what they may claim to the contrary.

It is obvious from the Nazi cartoon in the image above that the Nazis themselves certainly didn't think the Church or Pope were complicit in supporting Nazism. On the contrary, they obviously thought the Church was complicit in supporting the Jews. Which was in fact, the real truth as presented in the book below - written by a Jewish Rabbi.
'The Myth of Hitler's Pope' - How Pope Pius XII rescued Jews from the Nazis. by Jewish Rabbi David G Dalin.
www.amazon.com/gp/product/0895260344/ref=cm_cr_dpvoterdr?...
What about books, such as; 'Hitler's Pope' by the journalist John Cornwell, which claim that Pope Pius XII was complicit in the persecution and murder of Jews by keeping quiet about the crimes of the Nazis?
Cornwell's book has been completely discredited.
Catholics who attended church in Nazi Germany were left in no doubt that the Church opposed the Nazi regime well before 1940.
'The Persecution of the Catholic Church in the Third Reich' 1940 - has page after page of contemporary source material, such as translated copies of Pastoral letters, Encyclicals and Sermons issued by Bishops, Archbishops and Cardinals read in German churches at the time, including one from a combined Pastoral of Bishops, which criticise the National Socialists and point out the Nazis opposition to Catholicism and Christian civilisation.
Furthermore, Cardinal Pacelli, who became Pius XII, was one of them. And he was singled out for vilification by the Nazis in the Nazi publications of the Schwarze Corps.
So the idea that Catholics didn't know that the Church opposed Hitler and the Nazis is complete balderdash.
Catholic newspapers and publications were systematically banned or censored at the time. So Encyclicals and sermons were the only voice the Church had within Germany.
All German radio and newspapers were controlled by the Nazis. They wouldn't have publicised any public pronouncement by the Pope or any other opposition from the Catholic Church.
So the Church certainly wasn't silent - or complicit with the Nazis. And thousands of Catholics and priests were imprisoned, tortured and executed for being in league with Jews and also falsely accused of being in league with Freemasons and Communists.
The Nazis considered the Catholic Church (and other Christians) an enemy within.
And overwhelming evidence shows that the Pope was actively organising the escape of thousands of Jews from the Nazis. Vatican Radio had to keep the Pope's involvement out of the news in order not to undermine or damage the rescue effort.
The Pope was well aware that antagonising the Nazis with worldwide, public pronouncements from Vatican Radio would lead to an increased crackdown on priests and other Catholics who were working undercover to help Jews escape. It would have been completely counterproductive.
It is very significant that the Jewish Historian, Martin Gilbert, the biographer of Winston Churchill, who knew much more than Cornwell, or any other historical 'revisionists' wanted Pope Pius to be given the title Righteous among Nations.
“As one of the world’s leading experts on the Holocaust and WWII, Sir Martin was well aware of the lifesaving efforts of Pope Pius XII, most especially to save the Jews from the barbarism of the Nazi regime,” Krupp told the Register. “It was Sir Martin who encouraged me to nominate Eugenio Pacelli (Pope Pius XII) to Yad Vashem to be named ‘Righteous Among Nations.’”
"In an interview in 2007, Gilbert explained how the wartime pope’s interventions and protestations directly helped to save 4,700 Jewish lives in Rome and that 477 Jews were given refuge in the Vatican. He also documented other ways in which Pius XII rescued Jews persecuted by the Nazis."
"In an earlier interview in 2003, he hoped his research would “restore, in a way, on the foundation of historical fact, the true and wonderful achievements of Catholics in helping Jews during the war.
Pave the Way Foundation also filmed an interview with Gilbert, during which he discussed his personal research on the actions of Pope Pius XII during World War II.
He was eager to see the Holocaust museum Yad Vashem open a file on Pius to study his worthiness to be included in the institution’s “Department of the Righteous.” He also wanted to see the wartime archives opened to the public so that historians could better understand Pius’ role."
Sir Martin Gilbert estimates the Catholic Church saved up to half a million Jewish lives.

Of course, this is all available in the public domain, but still atheists and other anti-Christian bigots persist in ignoring the truth and continue to propagate distortions and lies. Their motivation is not historical accuracy, but militant, ideological fanaticism.

Greetings. My name is Andrew Jackson Wright. I work as an Archive Support Assistant here at Archives NZ. My main responsibility is to retrieve materials for researchers in the Reading Room. Without me no one gets their files - so be nice ;)
My favourite archive is “Fruity Bits” because it makes me nostalgic for a time in New Zealand when things seemed simpler. You didn’t have to worry about what you were doing on a Friday night because there was only one thing to do - go dancing. You didn’t need to worry about whether to have Thai or Malaysian for dinner because there were no Thai or Malaysian restaurants – only the Green Parrot.
This is the last known copy of “Fruity Bits”. On Febuary 15th 1932 a Miss Emily Mueller wrote to the Ministry of Internal affairs complaining of the publications ‘demoralising effect on our idle boys’. Miss Mueller supplied two copies of “Fruity Bits” with her letter. These are now in the collection of Archives NZ. The editor of “Fruity Bits”, John Tonking, was brought before the courts and convicted of ‘causing to be printed an indecent document’. He was fined 10 pounds and discharged. The remaining copies of “Fruity Bits” were destroyed. The Frolicsome Fun was over.

The Elingamite set out from Sydney for Auckland on 5 November 1902, with a crew of 58, carrying 136 passengers and 1,000 tons of cargo. On the 9th she was moving slowly in a thick fog and foundered on the Three Kings. Passengers and crew took to lifeboats. Most were rescued, but 45 lives were lost.
The telegram from the Auckland Collector of Customs announced “Sad news just received that the “Elingamite” is a total wreck on the Three Kings”
Another telegram (transcribed) lists the ships involved in the search for survivors, which included the Greyhound, the Clansman, the Countess of Ranfurly, HMS Penguin the Sterling and the Omapere. The Zealandia, which had also sailed from Sydney, picked up 70 survivors.
The images are taken from Customs records held at Archives New Zealand Auckland Regional Office [Archives reference: BBAO 5544/212/1902/993]
The Wellington Office of Archives New Zealand holds additional files on the wreck of the elingamite, including files on the attempted salvage of the wreck. These files can be searched for using our online finding aid Archway archway.archives.govt.nz/

Este es el Manuscrito Informe de la fuerza española Naval y sus acciones militares en Chile y Perú: Estado Que en el dia de la fecha tiene el Vireinato de Lima; Provincias del de Buenos Ayres Recuperadas y conservadas Por el Ejercito del Alto Perú; y finalmente un en el ce que halla el Reyno de Chile [El Estado en esta fecha del Virreinato de Lima, las provincias de Buenos Aires, devueltos por el Ejército del Alto Perú; y, finalmente, el Estado del Reino de Chile].
Lima, 01 de noviembre de 1818.
Pequeño folio (ca. 31x21 cm). 6 páginas. Tinta marrón sobre papel verjurado con marcas de agua 'A' y 'PLA'. Texto en español en la escritura a mano legible.
Más tarde veteado por las envolturas del papel. Es un Manuscrito en muy buenas condiciones.
Históricamente significativo e importante informe periódico de la etapa final de la chilena (1810-1826) y del Perú (1811-1824).
Guerras de Independencia, compilada por las autoridades coloniales españolas. Nuestra copia al parecer perteneció a Joaquín de la Pezuela, primero marqués de Viluma (1761-1830), quien fue un virrey del Perú durante la Guerra de la Independencia: hay una frase manuscrita "Es copia Pezuela" en el final del texto.
El documento se divide en tres partes ("Vireinato de Lima", "Egéreito del Perú", y "Reyno de Chile") y comienza con el informe de avance de las fuerzas realistas (3.400 hombres bajo el mando del general Mariano de Osorio) de Callao para Talcahuano con el fin de recuperar Chile.
Sige a continuación las descripciones de Batalla de Cancha Rayada (18 de marzo 1818), Batalla de Maipú (5 de abril 1818), famoso Cruce de San Martín de los Andes (enero-febrero de 1817) y otros.
Una gran parte del texto está dedicado a las acciones del ejército de los realistas en el Alto Perú bajo el mando de José de la Serna e Hinojosa (1770-1832). Los informes de autor sobre el número de las fuerzas armadas en diferentes provincias del Vireinato de Lima y da una imagen de la guerra Perú de norte a sur.
Muy importante es el extenso material sobre la guerra naval cerca de las costas de Chile y Perú, y la acciones de la Primera Armada de Chile Escuadrón que se formó en 1817-1818 y, finalmente, "terminan el dominio colonial español en la costa sur-oeste de América del Sur" .
El informe enumera 12 buques de las fuerzas navales de los realistas (Las Fuerzas de mar): fragatas Esmeralda, Cleopatra, Presidenta y Venganza, bergantines Pezuela y Potrillo, corbeta Sebastian.
Hay notas sobre el estado y la cantidad de armas de fuego de cada buque.
Una lista separada se dedica a las naves enemigas (patriotas) y también detalla su artillería: Lautaro y Cumberland (comprado de la British East India Company); corbeta Coquimbo (comprado en los EE.UU.), cuatro bergantines, y siete corsarios (anglo-americano y francés).
Los informes de documentos sobre el bloqueo de Valparaíso en marzo-abril de 1818, y las acciones navales, por ejemplo, El ataque contra la Resolución, corbeta española, cerca de Callao por la fuerza de corsario, que consta de los marineros americanos, portugueses e irlandeses británicos (19 de octubre).
El texto concluye con la noticia de que el refuerzo naval para los realistas se ha apartado de España: Fragata Especulation dejó Cádiz el 21 de mayo con 6 funcionarios y 200 hombres del Regimiento de Cantabria, una parte de una fuerza más grande que se embarcará en Callao y se irá de inmediato para reforzar el ejército del Alto Perú.
Fragata María Isabel aumentará las fuerzas marítimas destinadas al bloqueo de Valparaíso. El autor no tiene ninguna duda de que "Nuestra fuerza marítima debe tener éxito en la destrucción de los rebeldes y nos dará ventaja en la reconquista de Chile".
xiphophilos; This is a pre-ww1 manual for the drawing of Feld-Krokis or Übersichtsskizzen (field map sketches) for officers and NCOs, based on the Royal Prussian Land Survey (Königlich Preussische Landesaufnahme) from 1909. The associated map of Bodensee with Netze-Fluß and Ilm-See and the other of Kirchdorf may be fictional sample maps, drawn to show the use of map symbols.
I was about to recycle the packaging in which my Lovely Eggs album was delivered when I noticed a piece of paper in there. Junk mail? Some advert or other? I had a look and it was a hand written note from the band. This kind of gesture goes a long way. Sure there are ways of getting the mp3 for nothing if I wanted to but buying the vinyl makes you feel more invested in the music. And you actually get a product not some intangible digital bits and pieces of nothing.
Anyway great band and lovely people.

Tinted grisaille illustration
This allegorical text written in vernacular verse was inspired by Guillaume de Lorris's and Jean de Meun's Roman de la Rose. Composed in 1330-1332 CE by Guillaume de Digulleville with a second recension in 1355 CE, this text represents the earlier of the two versions. Produced in Northeast France in 1370 CE, the Walters' copy contains a frontispiece miniature with a portrait of the author, as well as eighty-three tinted grisaille illustrations. These illustrations are based on models consistent with contemporary thematic choices and contain abundant anecdotal detail, lending character to the text. As of spring 2014 the Institute for the Study of Textual History, Romance Languages in France has been gathering all reproductions of Digulleville's manuscripts. W. 141 is one of the few copies outside of France.

I'm working on this little art-book about geometry. It's mostly a learning exercise for myself, and a training project to learn how geometers think and work. I confess, I don't always understand it — but the more pages I complete, the more I understand. It helps that I create each page three times: once as a pencil outline of the geometry problem, once as a text-based explanation of the problem, and once as the inked-and-colored explanation.
This notebook is in a Moleskine Japanese Album, the larger of the two sizes available (and the rarer) with 49 pages.
ROYAL NORWEGIAN CONSULATE GENERAL
Amsterdam, 16. desember 1977
Til ordføreren i Trondheim
herr Axel Buch
Det var meget gledelig å høre at Trondheim har funnet en utvei til å sende det tradisjonelle juletre til Amsterdam også iår.
Jeg hadde den ære å overrekke juletreet til Borgermesteren i Amsterdam, herr W. Polak den 7. desember på vegne av Trondheim kommune.
Borgermester Polak takket hjertelig for juletreet og nevnte bl.a. i svartalen at først da det ble kjent at treet ikke skulle komme oppdaget man hvor stor pris Amsterdams borgere egentlig setter på den årlige gaven fra Trondheim.
Deretter ble treet på tradisjonell måte overrakt til Frelsesarmeen.
Man har iår merket seg en større interesse fra pressens side enn det som var vanlig i sakens anledning, og jeg tillater meg derfor å vedlegge endel avisutklipp.
Vedlagt oversendes også et fotografi som ble tatt da fru Polak lot lysene tenne. Fra venstre ses Frelsesarmeens kommandant i Nederland major R. Berkenbosch, visekonsul J. A. Konings, Borgermester W. Polak, fru Polak og undertegnede.
Treet er iår meget pent og ankom Amsterdam uskadet.
Jeg ønsker Dem og Trondheim kommune en riktig god jul og et godt nytt år.

A hand drawn sketch by Dr. Christensen from the University of Michigan Medical School for the laboratory sessions he conducted in the Medical Histology Course for first year medical students. The drawings were done with felt markers on a white board in the lab during the morning of the day a particular topic was being studied in the course. When the laboratory session began, the drawings were briefly discussed, and they could be seen by the students throughout the laboratory period.

This book of English heraldry was completed ca. 1589. The manuscript belonged to the Spencer family, as known through inscriptions on the first few flyleaves, including the motto "Dieu defende Le Droit" (God defends the right). This motto has long been associated with the Spencer family of England, which is the family line of Princess Diana, as well as the Spencers who were among the founders of Virginia. The Spencer family's heraldry is included in the manuscript, along with the coats of arms of numerous prominent British families, including the Hasting, Gray, Beuford, and Percye families. There is another similar book of English Heraldry in the British Library, Stowe MS 693, which was also completed at the end of the sixteenth century.

In Latin, illuminated manuscript on parchment attributed to the Florentine illuminator Mariano del Buono di Jacopo. Manuscript locally named Codex Pollick.
Produced in the early thirteenth-century, this manuscript is an important textual witness to the Historia Anglorum, the History of the English People, by Henry, archdeacon of Huntingdon. The first version of Henry of Huntingdon’s text had a terminal date of 1129, though there were four more updates containing events through 1135, 1138, 1148 and 1154. Walters W.793 represents the fourth version, covering the events from Britain’s first leaders up to 1148, in which the number of books is increased from eight to ten and three letters by the author were added. The text contains several colored foliate initials, though it is especially notable for its line drawing of King Stephen (d. 1154), grandson of William the Conqueror, and his earls before the Battle of Lincoln on February 2, 1141 (fol. 105r). It is closely related to British Library Arundel MS 48, which is believed to have been the model from which Walters W.793 was copied. Both copies may have been based on a prototype extant during the life of Henry of Blois (d. 1171). Of the approximately three dozen surviving manuscripts copies of the Historia Anglorum, only eight pre-date W.793. It and Arundel 48 are the only known illustrated exemplars.

Ben Carson '16
The National Draft Ben Carson for President Committee
Did you know that 40% of black people will vote for Ben Carson?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Carson
Benjamin Solomon "Ben" Carson, Sr., (born September 18, 1951) is a columnist and retired African American neurosurgeon. He is credited with being the first surgeon to successfully separate conjoined twins joined at the head. In 2008, he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President George W. Bush. After delivering a widely publicized speech at the 2013 National Prayer Breakfast, he became a popular figure in conservative media for his views on social issues and the federal government.
Meh if he (or his SuperPAC) were for real, they would have sent a pre-paid envelope.

Har egen, godkjent bysang!
Til orientering for Jubileumskomiteen: Etter en noe spesiell åpning av 1000-årsjubileet, kan det være på sin plass å nevne for Jubileumskomiteen at Trondheim har sin egen, godkjente bysang. Den er skrevet av Konrad Sehm, med melodi av Eilif Guldbrandson - og lyder som følger:
Du fagre Trondhjem med din jord
i sagn og saga svøpt,
med Domens søiler, hvælv og kor
i sten og marmor støpt,
med fjordens friske bølgeslag,
med fjeldets lette aandedrag,
med elvens favntak om ditt bryst,
med al din glæde, sorg og lyst,
vi hilser dig i dag!
Her helten Olav Tryggvason
har rikets sæte lagt,
og som du steg i dåd og ånd
steg også Norges magt.
Da folket stred mot fremmed vold,
da fostret du os en Tordenskiold.
Slaa varmt og stolt dit moderbryst,
din søn han var i daad og dyst,
til sidste flik og fold,
til sidste flik og fold!
Trods alt du led i krig og brand,
end hilser os dit flag.
Fra Sverresborg til Lades strand
du favner os i dag.
Og hvor din favn er tryg og stor,
den rummer alt for os paa jord!
I lyse som i tunge kaar
den altid like aapen staar,
vort hjem, vor fagre mor,
vort hjem, vor fagre mor!
Slik var skrivemåten da de to herrer hyllet vår by, stolt, varmt og inderlig. Ordformen er endret fra den gang, men inderligheten, stoltheten og de varme følelser for byen vår har vi ekte trondhjemmere bevart.
Var det en tanke å få et Trondheims-kor til å avslutte jubileumsfeiringen med bysangen vår? Så blir slutten på jubileumsåret litt anderledes enn starten.

One of the biggest industrial confrontations in New Zealand history (known as the 1951 Waterfront Strike or Lockout, depending on your perspective) began on 13 February 1951. It lasted 151 days, and at its peak involved 22,000 workers clashing violently with the New Zealand government. More information on the dispute can be found here: www.nzhistory.net.nz/politics/the-1951-waterfront-dispute
A week after the dispute began the National government declared a state of emergency. The 1951 Waterfront Strike Emergency Regulations were passed, giving police sweeping powers of search and arrest. Assisting strikers and their families (such as giving them food) was made an offence, as was the printing of union posters or pamphlets.
This flyer comes from three large files of pamphlets kept by the New Zealand Security Intelligence Service, and includes hundreds of other home-printed newsletters, flyers and strike ephemera.

“Vino al mundo en Chillán, el 20 de agosto de 1778, en el seno de una familia modesta donde doña Isabel había ido a refugiarse”.
El niño fue trasladado a Talca por don Domingo Tirapegui y dos ayudantes de confianza, “de noche y por caminos extraviados”, quienes portaban una carta con instrucciones perentorias y específicas sobre su bautizo.
Don Juan Albano y su cónyuge, doña Bartolina de la Cruz, dieron presuroso cumplimiento a este mandato, apadrinando al bautizado. Esta celeridad queda en evidencia por un hecho singular: doña Bartolina, a pesar de su avanzado embarazo, concurrió a la ceremonia bautismal y, tres días después, dio a luz al último de sus hijos, don Casimiro Albano.
Este nacimiento y crianza en la casa de las hermanas Olate se mantuvo en un cuidadoso secreto, permitiendo a doña Isabel contraer matrimonio año y medio después, con el agrimensor don Simón Rodríguez. El enlace se celebró con los mejores despliegues festivos y el ceremonial propio del matrimonio de una distinguida “hija de familia”.
Durante estos primeros años, don Ambrosio, ya convertido en Intendente de Concepción, mantuvo una regular vigilancia sobre los cuidados que recibía su hijo, a través de don Domingo Tirapegui, su amanuense y secretario privado.
Al cumplir cuatro años, en 1783, su padre determinó, por sí y sin injerencia ni conocimiento alguno de la familia materna, que Bernardo fuera llevado a Talca, a la casa de su amigo, el comerciante de origen portugués don Juan Albano.
Nuestros historiadores y biógrafos desconocieron, durante muchos años, el contenido de esta partida bautismal.
Ello indujo a error a Barros Arana y Vicuña Mac-kenna, que no acertaron en su fecha de nacimiento. Barros Arana la fijó en 1776 y, dada su autoridad, se aceptó tal fecha como verdadera, celebrándose el primer centenario del nacimiento del prócer el año 1876. El segundo centenario se celebró el lluvioso y frío 20 de agosto de 1978.
La realización del bautizo fue conocida por don Ambrosio gracias a la copia del acta que don Juan Albano le remitiera desde Talca.
Don Bernardo sólo tuvo conocimiento de la existencia de este documento el año 1806 o 1807, por las declaraciones que hizo don Tomás Delfín, en las gestiones de su legitimación, iniciadas en 1806, en Chillán.
Por eso celebramos el primer centenario del nacimiento del prócer el año 1876. El historiador rectificó este error en su Historia General de Chile.
