What?
you are right it is very christian to hate jews. thats why when you go to a christian church they preach from the 11 commandments. i think its commandment number 4 that says hate all jews and walk them into gas chambers...
And you live in 1930 Germany? So enlighten us, why did the Nazis want to exterminate Jews?
Personally, I thought that it was more about them being of an inferior race and having too much economic power in europe, rather than being motivated by differences in their beliefs.
Obama started it first.
like others here, i would love to know more about this supposed christian conspiracy to eradicate the jews.
though i wasn't around at the time, i would suppose they were targeted for the same reason any other people becomes a scapegoat. a group that holds themselves separate and can be shown to hold economic power in a country wracked by the financial woes of a ww1 defeat would make a perfect choice for venting the frustration of the populace. any group that was not a member of the aryan ideal was targeted, the jews were merely the largest of those groups. the attempt to align themselves with the vatican, an integral part of their ally's society, is only an intelligent political political move and the fact that the church's leaders would go along with such a tyrant and his monstrous plans only shows the dangers of investing too much power in an elite leadership.
"My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, Gods truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter. In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was His fight for the world against the Jewish poison. To-day, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed His blood upon the Cross. As a Christian I have no duty to allow my self to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice And if there is anything which could demonstrate that we are acting rightly it is the distress that daily grows . For as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people." Adolf Hitler, in a speech on 12 April 1922like others here, i would love to know more about this supposed christian conspiracy to eradicate the jews.

no, dont live in 1930 germany but as i recall, england was a christian nation and they didnt slaughter jews. the US was a christian nation and didnt support hitler. italy was a christian nation and at the heart of catholocism and they didnt advocate slaughtering jews. spain, same same....do i need to give more examples?
great example of how a power hungry statist can twist even the most beautiful ideas, love thy neighbor as thyself, and make it poison.
wow, you have just proven that all and every christian wants to hold signs like these.....nothing like painting with a broad brush.Sure buddy, Obama started it......
still you insist on condemning the intent of an entire creed for the words of a single man. i'm afraid there is less hope for you than even for an unrepentant atheist like me, at least i don't damn my brother for the sins of his leaders. though i'm certain there is no punishment after this life, you seem condemned to endure this journey filled with hatred and ignorance.

i'd suggest you take to heart that virtue co-opted by the christians and forgive. forgive the religious fanatics their foolishness and quit trying to blame the lot of them for the misdeeds of the few false faithful.
(alliteration can be fun
dont remember people arguing he was not a christian. he was a christian, pretty much a historical fact.You and others argued Hitler was not a christian and that christian motives had nothing to do with the Holocaust and I proved otherwise, and from that you surmise I'm 'condemned to endure this journey filled with hatred and ignorance'. Nice twist of logic you possess.
you've proved nothing more than he may have called himself a christian, just as any man may call himself anything he wishes. that you can't understand that simple fact is ignorance and that you would waste so much effort in the vilification of a creed based on such flimsy evidence seems little more than a mission born of hatred. so yes, i'd say ignorance and hatred are burdens you seem to be clinging on this journey. don't worry, you're not alone.
What is wrong with you?!?! Holy shit!
Well then, perhaps you can explain how trashing the Constitution is a patriotic endeavor? Oh, and then take a stab at what my "kind of patriotism" is.
