    This obviously is a controversial topic. Here’s what Wikipedia’s Hitler bio says: “Historian John S. Conway states that Hitler was fundamentally opposed to the Christian churches. According to Bullock, Hitler did not believe in God, was anticlerical, and held Christian ethics in contempt because they contravened his preferred view of ‘survival of the fittest’. … Hitler viewed the church as an important politically conservative influence on society, and he adopted a strategic relationship with it that ‘suited his immediate political purposes’. In public, Hitler often praised Christian heritage and German Christian culture, though professing a belief in an ‘Aryan Jesus’, one who fought against the Jews. Any pro-Christian public rhetoric was at variance with his personal beliefs, which described Christianity as ‘absurdity’ and nonsense founded on lies. According to a U.S. Office of Strategic Services report … Hitler planned to destroy the influence of Christian churches within the Reich. His eventual goal was the total elimination of Christianity.” Thus, what he said in his speeches and writings and believed personally were two different things. If these historians are at all accurate, Hitler can’t be called a “Christian” and wasn’t one.

    True enough but the same can be said of such notable Christians as several of the popes, the “catholic majesties” of Spain, and such teat Christians as Ted Cruz. Seems to me that Christians are great at forging themselves for sins vs others.
