Attn: Christians, We've Heard Them Already

[Polaris]

Hitler did have a history with the Church, but I see it not that he believed, but that he used the beliefs of the Christian majority in Germany to achieve his own goals...

It's possible that Hitler was only pretending to be a Christian. Who knows what was actually in his mind and he wouldn't be the first dictator who saw religion as "useful". That goes all the way back to that ancient Greek philosopher who noted as much.

That said, Hitler built upon Christianity to create the Holocaust. Do you think he just invented antisemitism? Or spontaneously created a culture that persecuted gays? Looking at all his victims, the Jews, the gays, the Gypsies. These were all people Christianity had persecuted for centuries. "Paul" himself wrote antisemetic and antigay screeds that were canonized in the NT.

The Nazi Holocaust was the culmination of 2000 years of Christian hate.

Those views date back to the time of Martin Luther...Hitler just built upon the hatred to create a scapegoat.

Paul was actually quite supportive of the Jewish...he was only mad at those who had killed Jesus and who had constantly been thwarting the Christian cult from reaching out to the non-Jewish community. This was from 1 Thessalonians.

On the anti-gay creeds, Paul grouped them with all other sin...Republican Christians in America just like to single out specific sins and ignore the rest....
