I did think that, but it is seriously an arguement they pull out. They are under some misguided impression it was atheist.
Hitler was raised Catholic but kind of informally left it as an adult, he never explicitly called himself an "atheist" but him just growing to dislike the religion is enough for these people to call him that. And he was raised it, no doubt he got all his views from it.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
