How will this conflict ever be solved? Part of my problem with theism is the very trouble of defining God in the way we have just witnessed.

It means to simply have a reason.

You are wrong. Reread that definition. It's not "a reason", it's "reason".

Your argument fails.

Do you not understand a simple majority belief in a given society defines reason for that society?

There were 72 million people who lived in Germany at the start of the war. The vast majority supported the nazi party and what it believed. Therefore in that time for those people they had a sound 'reasoned' belief, and solution.
