Sometimes anti-logic is so thick, one cannot wade into it to refute it. It's the same with Young Earth Christians; to attempt to refute their anti-logic is to become entangled in a briar patch of sheer sophistry. Sometimes, one has to drop an argument and just walk away from it. Unfortunately, Germany didn't take Hitler seriously after the first putsch attempt, and the world paid too dearly for it.
And, somewhat shockingly, it's the same with "the election was stolen!"

His testimony is not Hollywood made-up drama, it's from the actual court transcripts:
"When accused of murdering three and a half million people, Höss replied, "No. Only two and one half million—the rest died from disease and starvation."[
Sheesh.
I guess you have to admire his honesty, at least he didn't lie like the others did.
Obviously, he took pride in his work. He probably took great care to fully document his work. Ugh.

Cool...check out this video from the movie "Nuremberg" 20 years ago....at 4:00 the witness casually describes his duties as commandant and admits to gassing 2 million people while the court looks on in disbelief:

I never saw the full movie. The clip is riveting.

It is very difficult to refute an illogical premise with logic on a subjective level but young earthers are objectively nut jobs wether they agree or not
