The point is widely debated, but most people agree that Hitler considered himself to be a Christian. And, many Christians were attracted to the Nazis in part because of the anti-Semitism, which of course was a Christian invention.

That's a crock. Anti-Semitism existed long before there were Christians and exists prolifically outside Christianity. It is certainly not a *Christian invention*.

Anyone who's a Christian can't be an anti-Semite. If they are, they'd hate the Savior they claim to love and that can't happen.

Well at least you attempted to cushion your smear that Hitler was a Christian with this supposition being widely debated. Nice try. As stated in another post to you, Hitler was an occultist, he liberally borrowed from every religion and or secret society that fit his plan to deify himself as the leader of the master race. If this totalitarian killer absorbed Christian symbols or stories into his new religion that hardly makes Hitler the equivalent of a Christian. Anyone who makes this type of statement obviously has never read the Bible or the teachings of Jesus. The fact you actually seem to believe this nonsense makes you come off as rather ignorant or a troll.

Finally, Adolf got tired of rounding up and killing Jews so he started in on Catholics and Christians. That is the majority of the people that he rounded up to kill in the slums of the cities of Poland. Let’s see, Hitler liked killing and mass murdering religious people, seems more like a tyrannical atheist to me, but then again this point is widely debated.

Anti-Semitism (especially hostility to Jews, as opposed to the children of Ismael) predates Christianity, as even the Jews seem to have noticed. Ask a Jew sometime about the origin of Purim, or read the end of (IIRC) Psalm 137:

O daughter of Babylon, you devastator!

Happy shall he be who requites you with what you have done to us!

Happy shall he be who takes your little ones and dashes them against the rock!

Cheers!

Be careful what you label Christian when you would be better to use the term "pseudo-Christian". There are a lot of people that say a lot of things that they claim are Christian beliefs. That's why only the Bible can be relied upon as the true word of God (not the Pope, or a preacher, or any other book).
