“The Holocaust was like a modern inquisition, killing all who did not accept Jesus”
—EvilBible.com
I must admit to being stunned by the power of Adolf Hitler who even today from beyond the grave, as it where, holds sway over so very many people.
Let us consider whether Adolf Hitler was, as some claim, a Christian.
We will be considering a page from evilbible.com. As a reminder; keep in mind that evilbible.com has been discredited on various levels and for various reasons (which I evidence here and will continue to do so below).
Also, keep in mind that as with absolutely every condemnation of the Bible, its God, Jesus and Christianity found within evilbible.com we must note that the condemnations go unsubstantiated since they are premised upon an particular atheistic worldview whereby condemnation of anything at all amounts to mere assertions based on emotive and impotent arguments from outrage. Moreover, as has been evidenced ubiquitously, evilbible.com also thrives on arguments from manipulation and rely on partial, self-serving, information.
You may be aware that evilbible.com has posted certain pages from a certain Charlotte who wrote a series entitled, “The Church of Theists Suck [sic].” These were previously posted on a website that was entitled “Theists Suck.” That website is now dead and gone with portions of it living on at evilbible.com. Charlotte wrote that she is an “ATHEIST WOMAN,” and is clearly both very angry and very lacking in knowledge of even the most basic biblical concepts, contexts and contents. Below we will find that she is equally lacking in logic and knowledge of history.
Be aware that I did write an email to evilbible.com’s administrator. I mentioned that the page contained an erroneous point based on an uncontextual quotation from Hitler and that I would be glad to elucidate the matter.
I reckoned; begin small and take baby steps towards elucidating what a concoction of ahistorical, illogical and manipulative article it is but alas; I received no response.
This time we will consider an essay written by Charlotte entitled, “Hitler Was a Christian – The Holocaust was caused by Christian fundamentalism” (I wonder if she ever got around to writing one entitled, “Communists Were Atheists – The Communist Atrocities were caused by Atheistic fundamentalism”?). She introduces the essay as follows:
History is currently being distorted by the millions of Christians who lie to have us believe that the Holocaust was not a Christian deed. Through subterfuge and concealment, many of today’s Church leaders and faithful Christians have camouflaged the Christianity of Adolf Hitler and have attempted to mark him an atheist, a pagan cult worshipper, or a false Christian in order to place his misdeeds on those with out [sic] Jesus. However, from the earliest formation of the Nazi party and throughout the period of conquest and growth, Hitler expressed his Christian support to the German citizenry and soldiers. Those who would make Hitler an atheist should turn their eyes to history books before they address their pews and chat rooms.
Considering that Christianity has thus far been incapable of producing an unbiased, educated follower which speaks the truth, (I haven’t encountered any), I have been forced to dispel the myth by writing this essay. It is not until I bring up his speeches, my personal info on the Nazi regime and their tactics that a Christian will begin to question what their clergy told them. (I am the offspring of a German soldier. My Opa served under Hitler in WW2 and my father was raised during the time of the Nazi regime. This is important information to take into consideration for I am privy to some info that most Americans do not know. It is common for American media and education institutions to lie to their citizens concerning Nazi Germany.) So, in presenting this information I must break it into four parts: 1) Facts about Hitler and his involvement with the Church. 2) How the Church was the catalyst for anti- Semitism. 3) Facts concerning how the Nazi regime drilled these beliefs into Germanic society.
4) Quotes Hitler made which prove he had a disdain for atheism/occultism, upheld his Christian faith, and hated Jews due to his Christianity.
Sadly, she could not contain herself and demonstrates a very, very odd and clearly fallacious point of view, “Christianity has thus far been incapable of producing an unbiased, educated follower which speaks the truth,” you may have thought that even one single such Christian in the past two millennia would have been produced but alas—then again this is premised upon the fact that she has not personally encountered any.
This may be indicative of what happens when we engage in well-within-the-box-group-think and never get out into the real world and interact with people with whom we disagree. Thus, her conclusion is that all Christians are biased—this is a biased statement and who is not biased?—all Christians are uneducated—this statement is uneducated and she does not define education—no Christians speak the truth—this is clearly false and she does not define “truth”: and this applies to every Christian who has ever lived in the past two millennia.
Christians are biased, uneducated and do not speak the truth thus, Christians distort history, lie, and commit subterfuge and concealment via camouflage. This just goes to show the mindset which we are up against in dealing with the author of “The Church of Theists Suck [sic].” But so as to not even border on the ad hominem let us consider the substance and details of her actual arguments.
I will begin dissecting her argument by agreeing on one point which is that: my research has not convinced me that Adolf Hitler was an “atheist” (research that I posted as From Zeitgeist to Poltergeist, Part 13 of 13). However, our agreement ends here since I am prepared to argue, and have argued, that Hitler was “a pagan cult worshipper” and “a false Christian.”
Her next point is to present an argument from authority: she is the offspring of a German soldier who was himself raised during the time of the Nazi regime (note that whether her Opa was a “Christian” remains unstated or even if he was a Nazi—keep in mind that German soldier raised during the time of the Nazi regime does not amount to Nazi). Thus, she possessed more and different knowledge than “most Americans” and the “American media” and also American “education institutions” because these “lie to their citizens concerning Nazi Germany.”
Well, I am the offspring of Jews who were murdered by Nazis yet, my research has been based upon information gleaned from wherever I could find it and via considering various sides of the issue. As for Charlotte, we shall have to see what comes from her gnosis.
I thought to provide resources at this time since, in reality, all that which follows could be responded to by appealing to that which I have already written. Yet, evilbile.com’s and Charlotte’s claims are important enough to consider in a point-by-point manner; see From Zeitgeist to Poltergeist
