Goldhagen v. Pius XII

RONALD RYCHLAK

Daniel Goldhagen’s recent essay for the New Republic, “What Would Jesus Have Done? Pope Pius XII, the Catholic Church, and the Holocaust” attacks Pacelli as an anti-Semite and the Church as a whole as an institution thoroughly, and perhaps inextricably, permeated by anti-Semitism. Why did the New Republic choose to pass off to its readers this fabrication as scholarly history? The only apparent answer is that the editors were so anxious to vilify Catholics, their Church, and Pope Pius XII; so willing to join in Goldhagen’s vicious attacks; that they did not want to learn the truth.
