And you obviously didn't read my posts where I made it clear that Hitler's was a perverted form of Christianity. My point was that he was no atheist as some claim.

I did read your posts, and unfortunately the main point I got from them is that you were equating Hitler with Christianity.

Hitler may well have been a non-atheist. But he was also insane. Your mistake lies in equating the views of an insane man as being indicative of a theistic point of view.

I'm sure we can also find an insane person who reflects your general POV. Shall we tar your beliefs on that basis?

Even after I say Hitler's is a perverted form of Christianity? Your reading comprehension isn't very good.

"Hitler may well have been a non-atheist. But he was also insane. Your mistake lies in equating the views of an insane man as being indicative of a theistic point of view."

*Insanity* is a legal definition. I don't know that he was *insane*. I do know he was evil. And I also know of no evidence he wasn't a theist, though a twisted one. I made it very clear that this was not saying that theists or Christians are like Hitler. What part of that do you not comprehend?

Mao killed 40 millions, and he was certainly an athiest. Stalin was a particularly cruel athiest (I recommend the remarkable "Great Water" about the Stalinist years shortly after WWII). And let's not forget the athiests Pol Pot and Lenin.

From my own readings of Hitler, I believe he was setting himself up as some sort of Uber-Mensch Neicthian god--

So you can point out to the Guitarman who claims to be from Carolina (I'm not supposed to speak to him, on threat of making a nuisance of himself to the mods) that athiests have a nice murder record--all in a single century. Even without Hitler--around 60 million souls.
