134. Blaming the Holocaust on 'Gods plan' serves several purposes
It takes away blame for what the Nazi’s did from Christian culture in general. And if God allowed the Holocaust to happen, it must have been part of 'Gods plan' -else why would God have allowed it? The idea somewhat justifies what the Nazi’s did. It takes responsibility away from his religion for not doing anything to stop it. Blaming it on “Evil” or “Gods plan” or various other non-existent 3rd parties, instead of taking responsibility, opening up the vast Vatican archives to researchers and survivors and bringing closure.

It’s just a complete self serving statement basically to cover for Christianity and the Vatican etc...
