And would it be fair to give a Hitler or a Stalin or a Mao the delights of heaven and a relationship with God? Did none of their choices to do evil count against them? Would that be the act of a just God? If no, then you recognize the need for a fair judge at the end of time and are now, here, just questioning the fairness of God and saying you don’t trust him to do the job properly.

If the Bible is too be believed (which it's not) that's exactly what he's done. Most of the Nazis were Christians while Anne Frank was a Jew. According to your religion that means Anne Frank is right now burning in hell while the guards at her camp are now enjoying the "delights of heaven and a relationship with God". The same with the Khmer Rouge who have in recent years converted to Christianity and their victims who were mostly Buddhist.

Do you really think that the Nazi were Christians with a saving faith in Christ? Same with Pol Pot? It makes no sense at all. If they were Christians they would have acted differently wouldn’t they?

They must not have had the same Bible I do:

Love for Enemies
27”But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. 29If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. 30Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. 31Do to others as you would have them do to you.
32”If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even ‘sinners’ love those who love them. 33And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even ‘sinners’ do that. 34And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even ‘sinners’ lend to ‘sinners,’ expecting to be repaid in full. 35But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. 36Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

My understanding is that the State and the Race was all important for the Nazis and they jailed many believing Christians.
