Like you I am concerned about one-sided emphasis on the "neo-pagan" aspect in statements by Pope Benedict XVI and Karla Poewe; though I share Poewe's interest in J.W.Hauer and his German Faith Movement. The relation between National Socialism and religion is indeed a complex and murky issue, and one where new information and illumination are to be welcomed. Is it possible that even a researcher with an agenda may bring to light significant fragments of history? I recently had a discussion about Nazism with friends who share my interest in the Goddess as Kali. Afterwards we put some material on the net on the following 2 pages... <a href="http://home.pacific.net.au/~ferment/lowpoint.html" rel="nofollow">http://home.pacific.net.au/~ferment/lowpoint.html</a> <a href="http://home.pacific.net.au/~ferment/crusade.html" rel="nofollow">http://home.pacific.net.au/~ferment/crusade.html</a> Blessings Colin of Ferment Hello Jason
