Not only that, he was an American, a jew, a conservative, a big businessman, a tobacco company executive, an SUV, and let's see, what else don't leftists like...

That is historically INACCURATE! Everyone knows that SUVs were not in Germany at that time. Hitler was in fact a Mercedes, his favorite car.

Priests did not become molesters, molesters became priests, many encouraged to do so by the Church's enemies. They are well entrenched, but being gotten rid of. check catholicfundamentalism.com for better explanation.

Nuts! If the Catholic Church cannot even overcome the lust for little children (pedophile preists), how are they going to "overcome the world"?! The Bible says, "come out from her my people that you not partake of her plagues". Any sensible person reading the Bible would do an "about face" from this corrupt organization!
PS: HITLER WAS CATHOLIC!
Good grief...

Hitler was baptized Catholic, but was excommunicated long before he ever got involved in politics.
Not that I would expect accuracy from an individual who cannot even spell his own screenname.
And, by the way, I have to say it is in extremely poor taste to describe your mother so insultingly in your tag line. She did the best she could, and it's not her fault you turned out to be a harlot. Have some class.

Don't mess with Catholics, they're a little touchy. Oh yeah, anyone responding to hate like that is just "a little touchy." The problem isn't that message, it's them touchy papists.

That creep wouldn't recognize his mother if he saw her. It's not that he doesn't know her, it's just that she looks so different, now that she's shaved her back.

You're citing an atheist website against fellow Christians?!?

Wow, thanks for the atheist Nazi propaganda. You've outed yourself and your view of the world.

And it's not even a good atheist site. Let's see Hitler would appear to pray in public. Hmmm ... maybe like Bill Clinton carrying a big Bible. Whoopie.
There exist pictures of Hitler with churches in the background. Wow. It's sometimes hard to take a picture in Europe without having a church in the background.
Cardinal Orsini, the Pope's ambassador to Germany is photographed greeting Hitler, the chief of state, at a party. Duh! That's what diplomats do, for heavens' sake!
This is argument on the DU level, Iscool ... Rumsfeld once had dinner with Saddam Hussein, therefore ... Carl Rove controls the weather and George Bush is a fascist dictator and the war is illegal. Or something like that.
Be careful, sir, that in your very obvious hatred of Catholicism and Catholics you do not sin into sin. When you promote an atheists' attempt to slander Catholics and by extension all Christians, you just end up with mud on your face.

Erratum ... "do not sin into sin" should be "do not stray into sin".

Depends on the hatred. Hatred of an evil
thing is not a sin.
However, St. John says that anyone who hates his brother is "still in darkness" even though he may say he is "in the light". In context, that means someone who thinks he's infallibly "once saved always saved" but hates his brother is on his way to hell, no matter how "born again" he thinks he is.
Let him who has ears hear ...

I did just read a quote from Hitler as an adult and in charge where he stated he was a Catholic and always would be. I will try to find it and post it. Of course, I don't believe he was a believer in God in the least.

Depends on the hatred. Perhaps it would have been more clear if I had said "I'd say that that hatred is a sin."

I did just read a quote from Hitler as an adult and in charge where he stated he was a Catholic and always would be. If its the quotation I'm thinking of, it's reported by Albert Speer in "Inside the Third Reich". Hitler says that he considers himself "a member of the church" and plans to remain that way.
Problems:
- Speer is not necessarily reliable. Evidence exists that he lied to save his skin, among other things. These are of course recollections he wrote down in prison, years after the fact.
- "member of the church" doesn't specify what church Hitler's talking about
- Hitler is not known to have been a Catholic communicant after his mid-to-late teens.
- He is, OTOH, known to have lied like a rug, both in public and in private.
