- Note - This is in no way an effort to sanctify the Nazis
or their policies, simply another effort to bring history into accord
with the facts. Many have pointed to a complicit Catholic Church and
its WWII policies as being repugnant to 'Christianity.' This, of course,
is similar to the current criticism of tens of millions of US 'Christian'
evangelicals and their support of the genocide of over one MILLION Iraqis
by George Bush and his neocon handlers, and the US Congress non-stop funding
of the genocide of the Palestinian people by the racist, apartheid Zionist
state of Israel.

- The swastika is actually a form of a cross. The SS belt
buckles said, "God is with us." The German Republic gave a portion
of its money to the Catholic religion. The Pope met with Germany's leadership
and sided with Germany.
-
- On the other hand, we in the U.S. sided with the Godless,
atheistic Soviet Union. Yes, we sided with the Soviets, who had murdered
more of their own people (many of whom were murdered because they were
Christian) during peace time than died during all of WWII.
-
- All this talk of Germany being anti-Christian is sheer
nonsense. But I understand Jewish propagandists to forever continue the
charade as long as they feel it's useful. In the future, as the Jews make
more inroads with destroying Christianity, they will wail about the Christian-influence
on Germany, just as the same Jews in the past wailed about the "atheistic"
influence of Nazis in the past.
-
- In reality, America's government is anti-Christian, except
when it can use some pseudo-Christian Evangelical to suit its purpose.
Look at our support for anti-Christian Israel if there ever was any doubt.

affirmed that it is determined to take the Christian Churches under the
protection of the State. For their part the churches cannot for a second
doubt that they need the protection of the State, and that only through
the State can they be enabled to fulfill their religious mission. Indeed,
the churches demand this protection from the State." [Hitler - in
his first radio address to the German people after coming to power (1933).]

to the Nazi Party (quoted in John Cornwell's "Hitler's Pope"
)
-
- # "While we destroyed the (Catholic) Centre Party,
we have not only brought thousands of priests back into the Church, but
to millions of respectable people we have restored their faith in their
religion and in their priests. The union of the Evangelical Church in
a single Church for the whole Reich, the Concordat with the Catholic Church,
these are but milestones on the road which leads to the establishment
of a useful relation and a useful co-operation between the Reich and
the two Confessions." Adolf Hitler, in his New Year Message on 1 Jan.
1934 - "I know that here and there the objection has been raised:
Yes, but you have deserted Christianity. No, it is not that we have deserted
Christianity; it is those who came before us who deserted Christianity.
We have only carried through a clear division between politics, which
have to do with terrestrial things, and religion, which must concern itself
with the celestial sphere. There has been no interference with the doctrine
of the Confessions or with their religious freedom, nor will there be
any such interference. On the contrary the State protects religion, though
always on the one condition that religion will not be used as a cover
for political ends.
-
- # "There may have been a time when even parties
founded on the ecclesiastical basis were a necessity. (Between World War
I & II, the Catholic "Center Party" had been one of the
most powerful political parties in Germany.) At that time Liberalism was
opposed to the Church, while Marxism was anti-religious. But that time
is past. National Socialism neither opposes the church, nor is it anti-
religious, but on the contrary, it stands on the ground of a real Christianity."
-
- # "The Church's interests cannot fail to coincide
with ours alike in our fight against the symptoms of degeneracy in the
world of to-day, in our fight against the Bolshevist culture, against
an atheistic movement, against criminality, and in our struggle for the
consciousness of a community in our national life, for the conquest of
hatred and disunion between the classes, for the conquest of civil war
and unrest, of strife and discord. These are not anti-Christian, these
are Christian principles." Adolf Hitler, in a speech delivered at
Koblenz, August 26, 1934.

- Impressed with the organization of the Papacy, Hitler
is quoted as saying the following:
-
- "I learned much from the Order of the Jesuitsuntil
now there has never been anything more grandiose on the earth than the
hierarchical organization of the Catholic Church. I transferred much of
this organization into my own party." Hermann Rauschning, Hitler
Said To Me (1939), 266-267.
-
- "I believe in Providence and I believe Providence
to be just. Therefore I believe that Providence always rewards the strong,
the industrious, and the upright." Adolf Hitler, in a speech to National
Socialist women at the Nuremberg Parteitag of [11 Sept. 1936]
-
- "We National Socialists, too, have deep in our hearts
our own faith. We cannot do otherwise. No man can mould the history of
peoples or of the world unless he has upon his will and his capacities
the blessing of Providence." Adolf Hitler, to Nazi leaders on 2 June
1937, as reported by a correspondent of the "Daily Telegraph":
-
- "In this hour I would ask of the Lord God only this:
that, as in the past, so in the years to come He would give His blessing
to our work and our action, to our judgment and our resolution, that He
will safeguard us from all false pride and from all cowardly servility,
that He may grant us to find the straight path which His Providence has
ordained for the German people, and that He may ever give us the courage
to do the right, never to falter, never to yield before any violence,
before any danger . . . I am convinced that men who are created by God
should live in accordance with the will of the Almighty . . . If Providence
had not guided us I could often never have found these dizzy paths . .
. Thus it is that we National Socialists, too, have in the depths of our
hearts our faith. We cannot do otherwise: no man can fashion world-history
or the history of peoples unless upon his purpose and his powers there
rests the blessings of this Providence."
- Adolf Hitler, in a speech at Wurzburg on 27 June 1937
-
- "Amongst the accusations which are directed against
Germany in the so called democracies is the charge that the National Socialist
State is hostile to religion. In answer to that charge I should like to
make before the German people the following solemn declaration:
-
- "1. No one in Germany has in the past been persecuted
because of his religious views (Einstellung), nor will anyone in the future
be so persecuted...
-
- "2. The Churches are the greatest landed proprietors
after the State . . . Further, the Church in the National Socialist State
is in many ways favoured in regard to taxation, and for gifts, legacies,
&c., it enjoys immunity from taxation.
-
- "It is therefore, to put mildly-- effrontery when
especially foreign politicians make bold to speak of hostility to religion
in the Third Reich...
- "I would allow myself only one question: what contributions
during the same period have France, England, or the United States made
through the State from the public funds?
-
- "3. The National Socialist State has not closed
a church, nor has it prevented the holding of a religious service, nor
has it ever exercised any influence upon the form of a religious service.
It has not exercised any pressure upon the doctrine nor on the profession
of faith of any of the Confessions. In the National Socialist State anyone
is free to seek his blessedness after his own fashion.
-
- "There are ten thousands and ten thousands of priests
of all the Christian Confessions who perform their ecclesiastical duties
just as well as or probably better than the political agitators without
ever coming into conflict with the laws of the State.
-
- "But on one point it is well that there should be
no uncertainty: the German priest as servant of God we shall protect,
the priest as political enemy of the German State we shall destroy."
-
- --Adolf Hitler, a speech in the Reichstag on 30 Jan.,
1939
-
- [ That last sentence sums up Hitler's stand on the priesthood.
Rather than standing for atheism, as today's Christians would like, Hitler
attacked the priesthood only to the extent that they got in his way.]
