<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JBK, post: 47679, member: 1101&quot;]If only “sinless” people can cast the first stone, then that means no one can condemn Nazi Germany, is that it? </p><p><br /></p><p>I do not mean this to sound like a personal attack, but this line of reasoning is monumentally offensive to me.&nbsp; Living in Germany, I have seen it made a few times.&nbsp; Some Germans focus on some aspect of US history that is regrettable and seek to make their own reputation better by condemning the US.&nbsp; To me, this is a form of moral relativism and historical revisionism, which results in denial of the extremity of the atrocities.&nbsp; Nothing that the US has ever done remotely compares to what the Nazis did.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>That is why I like the coins from these era as history lessons.&nbsp; Swastika coins, Polish ghetto coins, post war emergency money.&nbsp; It all tells the tales of the past. If you are an expert in these coin-related fields, you are also something of an historian.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
