Recently, aboriginal elders in Canada protested about children killed in Catholic Indian residential schools. They maintain that it happened at the institution of the Vatican in Rome.
They named Pope Benedict, Joseph Ratzinger, as the one ultimately responsible.
They were protesting at the "deliberate genocide planned and carried out by Christian churches, in alliance with the government of Canada, against generations of native people, causing the deaths of more than 50,000 children".
Yet another example of the horrors caused by Christian missionaries.
