I'm sorry but this is literally impossible. The Holocaust is forced in to your brain in school, from an early age.

It's not impossible. There's some kids that never see the inside of a public or even private school, they are home schooled and a very high percentage of those families have some kind of crackpot religious fundamentalism, where there would be an increased potential for Holocaust revisionism and/or denial. Some statistics:

I do not have statistics as to whether or not or what percentage of the estimated 1.5 million kids in the US are not taught about the Holocaust but the principle reason given for homeschooling is " a desire to provide religious or moral instruction (36 percent of students)".

Looking in the mirror.

That should make you feel cool. :thumb:

That's very true but this woman is obviously educated. After all, she's a carer. So it's not like she had some sort of sheltered upbringing or didn't go to school. She's reasonably intelligent from what I know of her. This has just shocked me. My sis originally said "death camps" and she didn't know what she meant, so she said, "You know: concentration camps" and she said "What's that?" :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

I was just addressing James' contention that it's not possible for anyone to be unfamiliar with the Holocaust

the age of the earth, diamonds, dinosaur bones, the sun, the moon.

my blood boils at the thought of the holocaust; it was one of the most vile things that ever happened to humanity, and yet I have a very faint desire for her entire lineage to have been destroyed in the wake of genocide so we wouldn't have to tolerate that level of stupidity in modern times.

Very true, and quite startling. But for somebody in Trollheart and I's corner of the world I think it's extremely unlikely.

Dang Paul home schooling isn't that sinister. They for have guidelines and they have to teach world history. If you lived in silly ass states like Texas where the education standards where they oppose the teaching of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) (values clarification), critical thinking skills and similar programs that are simply a relabeling of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) (mastery learning) which focus on behavior modification and have the purpose of challenging the student’s fixed beliefs and undermining parental authority.

You would home school your kids instead of sending them off to public school.
