"So the Nazis were what? Atheists?"
Despite your tagline, I smell a troll.
Hitler (like Rosenberg) believed that he had found the secret key to history--which is what Marx had also claimed.
But Hitler thought Marx was wrong. That instead of class struggle, the struggle was between peoples.
(And yes, Hitler was an adamant believer in evolution. Much of his theories is based on Darwinism as he understood it.)
Hitler believed that Christianity had been used by the Jews to infect and degrade the Aryan race. That it is why he saw it as the worst calamity to hit mankind in history.
He and his cronies wanted to wean the German people away from Christianity and into "positive Christianity" -- which in truth had nothing to do with Christianity whatsoever.
What it was was a mixture of Germanic folklore and pre-Christian paganism. It was meant to develop loyalty to the race/the people/the blood/the volk and to build up the warrior mentality.
That's one reason why Hitler admired the Moslems so. He felt they were very warlike and very militant about advancing their blood/people.
And tell me, what in Hitler's speech of 12 April 1922 was different in any respect from what Martin Luther preached in 'The Jews and their Lies'? Lose the distractions, and answer the questions.

Nope. I asked a perfectly legitimate question. Were the Nazis atheists? If not, what were they? I think they were all (maybe with a few exceptions) raised as Christians, attended Christian services/ceremonies/rituals, invoked the Christian God and Christian scripture in their everyday and public speech, etc. There is no question Germany before Hitler took power was a solidly Christian country.
And yes, Hitler was an adamant believer in evolution. Much of his theories is based on Darwinism as he understood it.)
Now I not only smell a troll, I hear a troll. I didn't ask that and you are repeating a frequently repeated error and anti-evolution creationist myth that has just as frequently been rebutted and shown to be false. And I generally speaking, don't respond to creationist trolls.
