The Holocaust
I just had a reasonably intelligent 23 yr old male, who I consider a friend and an individual of at least COMPETENT intelligence ask me, "When was the Holocaust? The 20's...or was it the 30's?" Is this a sad commentary on our educational system, human nature, or just him? I doubt it's the latter. I consider this person to have a good moral standing. I was completely blown away. He then went on to ask if "...WWII was started when they assasinated Archduke Ferdinand."
