Arthur, I do not believe in collective guilt. For example, when a drunken driver runs over granny in the street (killing her), only he should be charged with vehicular manslaughter, not the passengers, certainly not the guy tied up in the trunk, as he screams in protest and struggles to get free.

There were many innocent Germans who opposed Hitler and the Nazis, and paid with their lives to help Jews and others, before and during WWII. If you do not believe this, simply check out, 'The Avenue and Garden of the Righteous Among the Nations', outside Yad Vashem, in Jerusalem. Many of the 'Righteous Gentiles', memorialized by the survivors of the Holocaust, were Germans.

Regards, Walter
P.S. When I say 'innocent', I, merely, refer to those Germans who were not Nazis, and did not support the Nazi regime. Certainly, all of humanity is guilty of sin, as defined by the
Holy Bible, and the Judeo-Christian tradition.
P.P.S. This is getting waaay toooo heavy! Lets go back to the things we all know and love that go pssst, bang, boom,etc., in rapid succession!!!
