I read an article titled Bishop Who Denied Holocaust Ousted. The Bishop believed that the concentration camp gas chambers didn't do nearly the damaged that history says it did. He believes that only 200,000 to 300,000 people were killed in the gas chambers. After his statement on this, he was dismissed as the Bishop last Sunday. I think that the big cultural difference is that if I had said that, I would have had a huge argument on my hands, but being someone high up in the church completely changed that.
