Was Hitler objectively bad?

Right. OK, the Jews had an anthropomorphic god-- something you don't have to tell anyone. Most gods are anthropomorphic (I have rarely come across a god referred to as an "it" rather than "he" or "she"). So what? The Christian god is somehow not anthropomorphic? --the religion founded on the human incarnation of THE creator of the universe himself? It doesn't get any more human-centered than that. And the last time I checked, the god of the Torah and the god of the Christians is (at least according to Christians) the same god.

If someone wants to believe in a god that commands genocide, no one is stopping anyone. I don't have any faith in any gods anyway, so as far as myself is concerned, its irrelevant anyway. But don't expect just everyone to find such a god a great model for "morality" when (understood literally or mythically) he did the same thing Hitler and other tyrants did. Seems a tad hypocritical, a case of the pot calling the kettle black. I can't help it if that is uncomfortable and so it is re-interpreted some way that somehow makes it less embarrassing to modern sensibilities.

Just so you know, I don't believe in Zeus either, but I say he was a prick too. As well as a number of other gods. I don't care how such stories about them are interpreted. Just because its fiction doesn't mean I can't have opinions about their actions according to a narrative. Its what makes reading fiction and watching films interesting.
