I apologize to Elizabeth, who started this thread, but it bears mentioning that this is a lie. Hitler was an atheist. Most of Germany in the 1940's, of those who claimed any religion, were Protestants, not Catholics. Hitler ordered the killing of many Christian preachers who wouldn't go along with his hate.
were Catholics. Hitler had many quotes where he mentioned Jesus and Catholicism. I can dig them
up if you'd like or you can with a simple internet search. Besides, even if Hitler was an atheist it doesn't
mean that he did evil things BECAUSE of atheism. He was an evil man, no doubt, but atheism doesn't
automatically mean EVIL.
For good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
