HOFFMAN'S LETTER TO POPE BENEDICT XVI
"I believe in freedom of speech for Bishop Williamson"

Vatican City
Your Holiness
Is it not true that under the Second Vatican Council's doctrine of
Religious Liberty, that Bishop Richard N. Williamson has the right to
express his conscience and opinion on the subject of execution gas
chambers in Auschwitz? Why is the Council's doctrine of liberty being
suspended in his case?
Your Secretary of State has made belief in the "Shoah" a criterion for
holding office in the Church. Is the rabbinic "Shoah" mysticism now a
dogma of the Roman Catholic Church?
If so, on what Biblical, patristic and theological basis is the warning
of the Apostle Paul in Titus 1:14 now overthrown?
Do Catholics no longer have the right to doubt or question aspects of
secular history? Does the Magsterium of the Church now decree the
undoubted veracity of the figure of Six Million deceased Judaic persons,
and the undoubted existence of a mass killing operation in
Auschwitz-Birkenau, conducted by means of poison gas chambers?
Are you aware of the extent to which the Crucifixion of Christ has been
replaced by Auschwitz as the central ontological event of western
history? Do you wish to be complicit in the disastrous effects that
continue to accrue from this derogation of Jesus and deification of man?
I firmly believe in freedom of speech for Bishop Williamson. I am
deeply troubled by your attempted suppression of his rights in this
matter. It would seem that, under your pontificate, casting doubt on a
supposition of secular history is now a de facto heresy. I can find no
grounds for this innovation in Scripture or Catholic tradition.
I also urge you to compassionately use your influence to solicit the
immediate release of the imprisoned chemist Germar Rudolf, who has been
jailed for more than a year in Germany, for writing scholarly books
(

aspects of the alleged homicidal gas chambers. His suffering and that of
his young family must not be ignored or dismissed. He deserves mercy. He
has committed no crime. His continuing incarceration in Germany is a
scandal and a disgrace for which German Chancellor Angela Merkel bears
grave responsibility.
Sincerely,
Michael Hoffman
