[edit] Added template messages
Added template messages based on earlier comments. I find that this article is not written from a neutral point-of-view based especially on the last paragraph, and no citations are included. It is a useful article but is not up to Wiki standards.

- Seems neutral to me. In fact, it seems rather understated. --Charlene 20:33, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
If this is true this is not right.. there was no way there was as many catholics that died in the holocost as there was jewish people why is there no star of david erected at the site??
It could be right. 11 million people died in the holocaust, about six million of them Jews. Almost half were then not Jewish. Of those that were not Jewish, it would not be crazy to then deduce they were largely Catholic.--128.59.143.41 22:18, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
Note, that the number of Jewish victims is based on the ethnic criterion, not religious (this was the only criterion used by the nazis). Among these there were also ethnic Jews of other religions, mosty Christian - and among them, mostly catholic. It might have be a relatively small number, although in the pre-war Poland (and possibly other countries) "conversions" were not that uncommon. That said, there must have also been a number of atheists among both Jewish and non-Jewish victims.
