Although not branded a Nazi, I have met with some caustic treatment for even expressing some interest in "investigating" the subject. I admit that prior to certain experiences, I generally just accepted the holocaust as some sort of "fact" but I was eventually motivated to investigate it more closely by some sources I consider quite reliable and most certainly not "anti-semitic." I have become increasingly suspicious by the reactions (and even threatening tones) of some of the exterminationists; and, I must admit that this "push" for legal sanctions against opposing views is very very suspicious. Still, this does not mean the exterminionists are entirely wrong. One can't simply discount the testimony of hundreds of people and call them all liars, can they?! I suspect that as is the case with most such historical matters, the truth is somewhere in betweenst all this name-calling. "More heat than light" as the expression goes. Too, I find it sometimes offensive that there are some who seem to think that this period in history represents the only worthwhile commentary or "play" when there are myriad examples of human suffering being heaped on may different nations and religions of people, not just the "Jews." As I said, the truth is, I think, somewhere betweenst; but I just wish that everyone on these newsgroups would pray for less suffering for all of the human race, and not engage in some of the negative rhetoric . No, Wes, not everyone who questions this period and its accuracy is a Nazi, but there are some evidently highly prejudiced people on both sides, as is starkly manifested by some of the postings on this group.

Foolish methodology, much like the type the Nazis themselves used to silence their opponents. Foolish...

The odd thing is this is actually similar to the tactics the Nazis themselves used to oppress contrary opinion. Very foolish methodology.
