The Journal of Creation just bumped this back to the top of their website.
Ping regarding Michael Savage’s comments about the Swedish killer.
PS, I like Savage, and I started the Savage daily thread, but for now, I don’t him to have the most ‘accurate’ views on issues that involve spiritual issues.
I've read Mein Kampf (God was it a painful read, too), Trevor-Roper's Hitler's Table Talk and Toland and Fest's biographies of Hitler. From these and many other sources it is clear that Hitler despised Christianity almost as much as Judaism and tolerated it ONLY because it was the traditional religion of the German masses. For that reason he sometimes used religious language in his speeches, especially when he appeared before very conservative audiences or when he was speaking in Catholic Bavaria outside of Munich. Hitler was himself agnostic to the point of simply not caring, having utterly rejected Catholicism in his youth. Per Trevor-Roper, his eventual goal was to destroy the church and replace it with an entirely synthetic cult focused on Blood, Soil, the State and the Leader. Such a controversial change had to wait for the present generation of Germans to die out, but in this goal Hitler was pragmatic and patient. But you can see the shape of what was to come in the madcap quasi-pagan rituals of the SS leaders.
But although some German Christians took a stand against Naziism (Bishop Graf von Galen, and the Jehovah's Witnesses are notable examples), the vast majority appear to have found a way to reconcile Jesus with the Fuhrer.
Hitler was nothing but a pagen. His whole regime was deep into the occult. People always say the nazis were christian. It is a lie.
Well the ‘devil’ is up to what he does best muddy clear running water. There is NO secret to finding the WORDS of Christ, and of course anybody and every body can claim to be Christian. BUT other than Christ not one of us born in the flesh ever leave this earth as living life in the ‘perfect’.... although I would contend that those NOT of the age of accountability do come very close. Some people are born to be liars.... as it is Written....
“We are a people of different faiths, but we are one. Which faith conquers the other is not the question; rather, the question is whether Christianity stands or falls.... We tolerate no one in our ranks who attacks the ideas of Christianity... in fact our movement is Christian. We are filled with a desire for Catholics and Protestants to discover one another in the deep distress of our own people.” Adolf Hitler
“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 only by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God's 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 in 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 myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice” Adolf Hitler
I believe the word in German is ‘’hankenkreutz’’ or ‘’twisted cross’’.
