Pesky Archives Beat Infallible Pope

For someone with a direct psychic line to a being who knows everything, the pope sure does miss a lot. For instance, Captain Beard In The Sky didn't tell him that historians have archives with things like this:


Here's the translation:

Why is a Catholic obliged to vote for the parliamentary list of Adolf Hitler? Because in the National Socialist state intrinsically and through the Reichskonkordat

1. the Faith is protected,

2. peace with the Church is assured,

3. public morality is preserved,

4. Sunday is hallowed,

5. Catholic schools are maintained,

6. the Catholic conscience is no longer burdened,

7. a Catholic has equal rights before the law and in the life of the nation,

8. Catholic organisations and associations, insofar as they exclusively serve religious, charitable and cultural purposes, can operate freely.

Therefore a Catholic is obliged on 12 November [1933] to vote thus:

Referendum: yes

Parliamentary election: Adolf Hitler

I'll expect my apology in a century, when there are 5 Catholics left.
