Butterfly Effects

[Armin]

He was also a proud member of Hitler's Nazi Youth, with honours. Distinguished service even.

FYI, he joined the Hitler Youth in 1941 when turning FOURTEEN, which was, btw., then required by law in Germany. Drafted into the "Volkssturm" as a "Flak Aid" at age 16 he *deserted* in 1945, most likely before seeing any real combat...

Now, don't get me wrong, I left the catholic church almost 18 years ago because of the radical conservative viewpoints of his mentor and now predecessor Karol Woytila, and I hardly think that things will go uphill now that his grand Inquisitor has taken over. I don't like the man's strictly conservative, sometimes reactionist, views one bit. I certainly don't like him personally either...

But holding something he had no say in as a teenager, back in 1941, against him is just plain silly!
