So I guess I did not, seeing that the statement made was of the same idea and notion. You do know that a core tenet to Christianity is love thy neighbor don't you, Hitler tried to kill all his.
I'm sure I recall you saying that actions were less important than belief in god.
And ol' Adolf was big on calling on god to justify his actions.
Whether Hitler called on God or not his actions were never justified.
Yes belief ie. faith is required for salvation, however, what we do is a witness to our salvation, and I'm pretty sure Hitler never showed any signs.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

If we go by adherence to the core tenets we are left with no christians whatsoever. Perhaps the H-man just fell short, but I do recall you folks making the claim that we all fall short, so he's in the same boat as you on that count.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

So 26% of Irish Catholics are dumb fucks.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
