There is no possible comparison from Christianity to Nazism, it is ignorant and rude to think otherwise.

I don't believe oldenuff2no was exactly equating Christianity to Nazism. All oldenuff2no was trying to imply was that there are certain denominations in christianity that chose to be so intolerant of other forms of christianity that they get labeled as anti-christian (i.e. heretics).
Perhaps he used the wrong analogy....it doesn't invalidate his points though.

Can you think of any Christian denominations that can in any way be equivocated with Nazi’s? I think after reading that I saw no point in his post other than to slur Christianity. What other point did he make that seemed valid? Christianity is a very well respected religion in most of the world, that is a fact. It is shunned only by those who are ignorant or evil, that is also a fact. Sometimes we see where people blame Christianity for something that a few individuals do...but that is not just nor appropriate intellectually. It is simply a slur. God gave us all free will, this free will encompasses each whether they are Christian or not. Temptation is an evil enticer, so to speak, that plays into our free will and is a part of each individuals life, again...whether they be Christian or not. Those terms would more adequately provide some argument.
