Somehow I don't think the Nazis bothered to actually write it down in a law that all Jews had to be exterminated.

Following orders perhaps, but following laws no.

I suppose its good you're not trying to deny the holocaust ever happened, but you could at least recognize the difference between laws and military orders. I am certain murder was still illegal in Nazi Germany, its just that the Nazi soldiers chose to ignore it.

I find it rather disturbing you're bringing up this topic.

Almost everyone is sensitive about their religious beliefs, not just Jews.

ie. If a major newspaper referred to the Christian religion as "Christian mythology" they would get a lot of offended Christians.

The few people who don't get offended are those who either don't take religion seriously, are atheists, or just don't give a damn.

It is a lot harder to insult an atheist. Saying they're going to hell for not believing in Jesus, God, Allah or whatever just makes them laugh.
