"We are not responsible for the past but we are responsible for remembering"

Greetings,

Have you read stories about the Holocaust? As a Christian it bothers me that Christians did not helped Jews during the Holocaust… or the Gypsies… or many other groups…

Some people do not even believe that Holocaust really happened during Hitler’s World War II…

I want to share with everyone reading my message an article I read online today at Priest uncovering beginnings of Final Solution By MARIA DANILOVA and RANDY HERSCHAFT - AP - Saturday, January 31, 2009 5:20:19 PM

While reading the account I came across this statement by Anatoly Podolsky that says
* * * “We are not responsible for the past but we are responsible for REMEMBERING.” * * * (Emphasis on REMEMBERING is mine)

Thank you for reading on these excerpt from the article – if you rather go to read the whole article then click on the link at Priest uncovering beginnings of Final Solution

Anyway, here are the excerpts that impressed me most of all:

The Holocaust has a landscape engraved in the mind's eye: barbed-wire fences, gas chambers, furnaces.

Less known is the "Holocaust by Bullets," in which over 2 million Jews were gunned down in towns and villages across Ukraine, Belarus and Russia. Their part in the Nazis' Final Solution has been under-researched, their bodies left unidentified in unmarked mass graves.

"Shoah," French filmmaker Claude Lanzmann's documentary, stands as the 20th century's epic visual record of the Holocaust.

Now another Frenchman, a Catholic priest named Patrick Desbois, is filling in a different part of the picture. The result is a book, "The Holocaust by Bullets," and an exhibition through March 15 at New York's Museum of Jewish Heritage.

"We are not responsible for the past but we are responsible for remembering." - Anatoly Podolsky, head of the Ukrainian Center for Holocaust Studies.

“Yahad-In Unum” (the Hebrew and Latin words for "together"), is a French association, which was founded by Catholics and Jews to heal the wounds between the two faiths.

"The book is meant so that people know ... that a genocide is simply people killing people," Desbois said. "My book is also an act of prevention of future acts of genocide."

Here are some links for you to find more information:
