You are militantly ignorant. You do not seek the truth. You just insult people on baselfess bull shit.
Hitler was not a fine Catholic; you are a liar. Proving further that you are an immoral shitty atheist. I can call myself a chair, that does not make me a chair. There are very clear teachings on what it means to behave like a Catholic. Anti-semetism has always been condemned by the Church, when the Church is speaking as a whole. Yes there are Catholics who do evil things. This does not mean the Church on a whole condones, or ever condoned such actions. It has in fact always condemned them. If anything Hitler was an atheist who used his Catholic birth as a way to get votes from a very powerful Catholic segment of Germany. The fact is Hitler thought of religion as something to trick people with, so that they will do your will. But he certainly was not a devout believer. Two of the greatest organized, thoughtfully intentional atrocities of all time were committed under atheistic regimes which sought to silence religion, and Christianity in particular: commmunism and nazism. When someone does evil in the name of Christianity they do it in a decietful and underhanded way, misleading poor ignorant folk to do things they otherwise would not do. With nazism and communism, people willingly and knowingly committed these great atrocities because they were materialist who understood that objective* good is a fiction to control people (if you are an atheist).
I realize that I am late to the party here. I'm new to the forum and have been catching up. But this sort of garbage really infuriates me. I don't try to rate the worlds atrocities, but one of the worst was committed by the Catholic church. The number of innocents killed in the Inquisition may not compare with Hitler's totals, but the brutality of the church's torture methods was unspeakable. (acquaint yourself with the uses of such devices as the "breast ripper" and "the Pear", I won't describe them here). And, when the Jews warn us never to forget the holocaust, (and rightly so), they very conveniently forget the genocides committed by their own people as described in their own bible. I despise hypocrisy, and before any self appointed defenders of the faith get up on their high horses, they need to take a good look at their own history.
