For almost a quarter of a century, Harry James Cargas has been
wrestling with the pain and bewilderment he feels about the
Holocaust. In a series of essays, Cargas deals with a variety of
issues and questions that the Holocaust raises and concludes that
Christian churches must accept a major portion of the blame for
centuries of Jewish persecution that led up to the massacres of
World War II. Further, he criticizes the silence and even
complicity of many Christians during the Holocaust. The essays are
wide-ranging, from the silence of the Vatican and Kurt Waldheim's
visit to Pope John Paul II to the persecution of the gypsies and
the canonization of Edith Stein. Along the way, Cargas arrives at
disturbing conclusions and proposes specific actions for both the
individuals and the institutional church. Reflections of a
Post-Auschwitz Christian challenges Christians to make the
Holocaust a turning point in their thinking and in their relations
with Jews.
