I didn't say the Nazis complied with Christian doctrine, which of course they did not. What conquerer does? But Hitler is recorded to have said "I am a Catholic, and I will be one until I die", or words to that effect. Hitler's decrees explicitly declared that Nazi Germany was a Christian state. If he was insincere in this, why do it, unless it was because he knew Germany was not ready to break openly with Christianity?
Hitler's personal philosophy and that of Nazism in general had zero, zilch, nada, nothing in common with Christianity whatsoever and he fully rejected any Christian values or worldview early on.
Have you read "The Pink Swastika"? It's online and the foundational philosophy of Nazism is detailed.
I have an uncle who says he's a montana mini-van. We still can't drive him to the store though.
You seem to completely miss the point, just like the media when trumping up McVeigh as "Christian" at least in birth (and again I stress, it never occurred to anyone to mention about "Christian" relations for McVeigh until AFTER 9/11).
It doesn't even matter whether the person/people in question are officially Christian, Moslem, Hindu or not. What matters is WHY THEY'RE DOING THE CRIME.
Moslems make it clear they do everything for their Allah. They kill and steal for Allah. They make it known.
McVeigh said nothing about killing for Christ. His religion (or lack thereof) had NOTHING to do with his crimes.
Going by your straw-man argument, we could by now say every religion, major and minor, is egregiously guilty of horrid crimes. Because every religion has included criminals within their ranks.
It doesn't count unless they PROFESS THEIR CRIMES ARE *IN THE NAME OF* THEIR RELIGION.
Don't understand why this is so hard to comprehend.
