Dear (recipient name),

To His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI:
 
I join with the Simon Wiesenthal Center in urging you to  reverse your decision to lift the excommunication of Bishop  Richard Williamson, an unrepentant Holocaust-denier.

At a time when anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial have reached the highest levels in two decades and protesters at anti-Israel rallies are chanting, "Jews back to the ovens", your decision to welcome a Holocaust denier back into the Church will only validate Holocaust denial and contradicts the teachings of Vatican II, which you helped craft.

As the leader of Catholics all over the world, now is the time that you make clear to all that there is no role in the church for those who promote theological anti-Semitism or Holocaust denial.
