Russia murdered, roughly, 60 million - SIXTY MILLION - Christians who, owing to baptism, were the adopted sons of God - and what have we heard from the Jews and/or the Vatican about this?
Zip, Zilch, Zero, Nada.
Let Catholics never forget the truth that the life of a Catholic is worth more than the life of a Jew.
Ha!!!
That reads like the claim of a madman, right?
Well, Catholics have no problem acting as though the lives of Jews are more important than the lives of Christians * and, thus, holocaust this, holocaust that, never forget this, never forget that, and ALL of those things have solely to do with the Messias-Deniers and atrocities committed by man against man are to be remembered and memorialised only if those atrocities are committed against Jews, because, of course, the lives of Jews are more important than the lives of Christians which is the ethos of Judaism and the teaching of the Talmud but why have Christians chosen to adopt such an insane and diabolical double standards?
In any event, let's never forget...

Catholics routinely speak about the Holocaust as though its multimillenial year meaning has been extinguished and so you could not find one out of one hundred millions Catholics who know the real meaning of Holocaust (On Calvary and in the Mass) because we have allowed political polemics to thrust a rhetorical spear into the side of truth and the truth has drained down into the memory hole only to be replaced by anthropocentric politics and if me and thee do not resurrect the right use of Holocaust, who will?
Certainly not the Hierarchy.
The Blessed Trinity: Present in the Sacrifice of the Altar
The Blessed Trinity’s love for man is made permanent in a sublime way through the Eucharist. Many years ago, we all learned from our catechism that the Eucharist can be considered as a sacrifice and as a sacrament; and that the sacrament is present to us both in communion and as a treasure on the altar, in the tabernacle.
I was talking to you about the love of the Blessed Trinity for man. And where can we see this more clearly than in the Mass? The three divine Persons act together in the holy sacrifice of the altar. This is why I like to repeat the final words of the collect, secret and postcommunion: “Through Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord,” we pray to God the Father, “who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.”
In the Mass, our prayer to God the Father is constant. The priest represents the eternal high priest, Jesus Christ, who is, at the same time, the victim offered in this sacrifice. And the action of the Holy Spirit in the Mass is truly present, although in a mysterious manner. “By the power of the Holy Spirit,” writes St John Damascene, “the transformation of the bread into the body of Christ takes place.”
The action of the Holy Spirit is clearly expressed when the priest invokes the divine blessing on the offerings: “Come, Sanctifier, almighty and eternal God, and bless this sacrifice prepared in honour of your holy name” — the holocaust that will give to the holy name of God the glory that is due.
That holocaust prefiguratively represents the holocaust of Christ on Calvary. Not only does the Burning Bush represent the Incarnation, it also represents the Redemption, because the sacrifice of Christ on Calvary, even though it was done by a crucifixion and not by burning, was a holocaust in the spiritual sense. So here we have the depicting of a holocaust, the sacrifice of Christ, and we see depicted here two things: his Divinity, which could not in any way be sacrificed or touched or harmed, standing above his Humanity, but joined to it by hypostatic union in the love of the Holy Spirit.
We may even see, on another level, the Soul of Christ, which in the sacrifice of Calvary separated itself for three days from the Body. The Angel in flame depicts the holocaust of Calvary by standing apart, separated from the Body. The Burning Bush represents also the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in which the Body and Blood of Christ are symbolically separated from his Soul in order that we may have a bloodless renewal and repetition of the Sacrifice of Calvary, and it illustrates why, around the altar of the Sacrifice, we have a sanctuary, with the voice of God telling us that the ground on which we stand is holy ground.
On the Cross, Jesus offered Himself as a holocaust, a total sacrifice, to the Father.

A Holocaust of Praise
The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is the heart of our monastic life. Uniting our lives with Christ we are offered to the Father in a holocaust of praise for the salvation of the world.
The Divine Office flows out from the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, extending our worship of God throughout the day. While the Church recommends the prayer of the Liturgy of the Hours to all, contemplative nuns are especially appointed for the work of divine praise. Seven times a day we come together to the Choir, joining with the angels in praising God. No work is more important. Everything else we do is fitted around this great sacrifium lauds.
