Yeah, they said he was a major favorite.

From what i read he left the Nazi army after being in the Hitler Youth and trained as an infantryman but was then picked up by the allies as a POW.

Better yet; how many do you know of that were young teenagers at the time when participation was mandatory?
Besides, he did go AWOL and got sent to an ally POW camp.

That was just a shitty final dungeon device, not a final boss.
I mean, c'mon, it was a giant tick.
Ratzinger has alienated other Christian denominations by saying they are not real churches.
He also condemned homosexuality and same-sex marriage in 1986, and denounced "radical feminism" in 2004.

^^^^Why do Popes take new names?
Because way back when, in 533, there was a Priest Mercury who was elected Pope, and he thought it a bad idea to have a Pope with the same name as a Roman god. . .and so took the name John II. The tradition stuck.

Are you serious or did you just make that up??? That doesn't seem plausible, but stranger things have happened I guess. frolicking imp fucked around with this message on 04-19-2005 at 03:21 PM.

frolicking imp wrote this stupid crap:
but he would ahve turned 18 the year the war ended right? (according to my bad math skills) maybe he was enlisted right at the end? and does germany even have the same laws as far as how old you have to be to be in the army?
By the end of the war the German government was using the 'Volkssturm', which was made up of young children and the elderly, in fighting capacity.

Actually he was in the hitler youth, which was mandatory. He served as a helper for an anti-aircraft gun, was released after a year, then immediatly sent to help in a factory.
He deserted that position - pretty ballsy considering deserters were shot on sight, or better yet hung in public as a warning.
