Catholic bishops in Germany \u201cmade themselves complicit\u201d in Nazi crimes according to a report by the German Bishops\u2019 Conference.<\/p>\n

At a video news conference Wednesday, the president of the conference, Bishop Georg Baetzing, presented the findings of a 23-page report, \u201cGerman Bishops in the World War,.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cInasmuch as the bishops did not oppose the war with a clear \u2018no,\u2019 and most of them bolstered the [German nation\u2019s] will to endure, they made themselves complicit in the war,\u201d the document said, according to a report in Katholische Nachrichten-Agentur.<\/p>\n

The report also said that while the bishops did not share Hitler\u2019s racial ideology, they still helped support \u201cboth soldiers and the regime,\u201d The Times reported.<\/p>\n

Hundreds of bishops provided spiritual guidance on the German front lines during the war and thousands of church properties were converted into military hospitals, staffed by Catholic nuns, the report notes.<\/p>\n

One prelate described the report to The Times as a \u201cconfession of guilt.\u201d<\/p>\n

Critics have long accused Pope Pius XII, who led the church from 1939 to 1958, of having turned a blind eye to Jewish suffering at the hands of the Nazis. His role during the Holocaust has been a bone of contention for years.<\/p>\n

On March 2, the Vatican opened its archives on Pius to scholars. The archives were closed a week later due to the spread of the coronavirus, but in that short window researchers already found documents showing that Pius knew about the Nazi death camps and that the Vatican hid that information to protect Pius\u2019s image, the Religion News Service reported.
