"Hitler seeking power, wrote in Mein Kampf. "... I am convinced that I am acting as the agent of our Creator. By fighting off the Jews. I am doing the Lord's work." Years later, when in power, he quoted those same words in a Reichstag speech in 1938." Three years later he informed General Gerhart Engel: "I am now as before a Catholic and will always remain so." He never left the church, and the church never left him." "Still a member in good standing of the Church of Rome despite detestation of its hierarchy, he carried within him its teaching that the Jew was the killer of god. The extermination, therefore, could be done without a twinge of conscience since he was merely acting as the avenging hand of god..." http://www.infidels.org/library/modern/john_murphy/religionofhitler.html http://www.freethinkerscs.com/articles/hitlerreligion.html ------------------ "But taken in chronological context, it would seem that Hitler's most anti-Christian statements were delivered after his election as Chancellor, and when he saw interference from the Roman Church (and all religion) as a threat to his control of the state." http://www.ronaldbrucemeyer.com/rants/0420a-almanac.htm There were few more that I happened to browse thru. The more I read, the more it appeared that "for some reason, Catholics are not eager to claim Hitler." : ) I wonder why ? ;) Having stated what I understood from what is evident out there, I think I shall rest my case in this one with the statement, "does that pastor know that hitler was a catholic? Piece of shit probably does not know his shithole from his mouth, and is talking heaven, hell, religion and what not." I do not know whether a direct rout to heaven, but I am certain that radical pastor is definitely not correct while stating that anyone who does not believe in Christ is bound to go to hell. In fact, all he is doing is marketing hatred between people and hence, committing heinous sin, while his master always taught love. I conclude. IndisGuise:)
