[QUOTE="Jones, post: 515838, member: 4805"] I haven't read the book, only saw the film, but I certainly didn't take it to be an anti-catholic screed. Carroll remains a devout catholic and follower of christ, but he clearly believes that the church as an institution (distinct from individual catholics) needs to acknowledge it's role in the historical persecution of the jews because only by doing so will it make what he sees as necessary changes to the church doctrine which was used to justify that persecution. I'm an outsider though, I was raised a catholic but left the church long ago so it's easy for me to be dispassionate about it. There are plenty of practicing catholics who share your point of view.
