“His roots were Catholic, that was his moral foundation. He hated Jews because his church taught him to...”
So the KKK Presbyterians hated blacks because their church taught them to?

In too many cases YES. White Supremacy was taught in many of the Southern churches as biblical going back to the children of Noah .

We are all products of the moral instruction of our youth. Some of us grow up and learn that were falsely taught, but not all. Those are the bigots and racists and yes the anti Semites

Ish. Your grasp of history needs to be...refreshed? Instructed? I am absolutely at a loss for words for this one. Not only did I have a Lutheran German grandmother, I had Jewish German relatives who fortunately got out prior to 1939. I can assure you, the Catholic church isn’t the reason Hitler gassed the Jews.

What was the reason for his gut hatred of anything not "arian " and "perfect" that led to his insane mission?

Politely, I ask, do you think perhaps your hatred of the Catholic Church is coloring your view a bit too much? You may want to use some reason in viewing history.

It is too easy to point to someone and dismiss their words as based on "hatred" and then think you have taken the high ground.

Actually I have often thanked God I was born to a Catholic family and raised with a Catholic education. That education gave me a good foundation on the basics of the Christian faith that when I was saved I had to build on.

I feel sorry for people saved from atheists or non Christian families. They have to build from the ground up.

I have many friends and family that are catholic, I do not hate them.

I do hate deception, and where I think there is deception in doctrine I will speak up, not out of hatred but for the love of Christ.

I did not start this discussion on hitler look else where for that

To the contrary, it's actually quite painful. And yet the hate flows free for Catholics on the FR Religious forum.

He was a deluded evil man who led a lot of deluded people into sin.

You need to look deeply within yourself to find out why you need to blame the world’s ills on a strawman.

I’ll pray for you. You need to come home.

Peace and goodnight.
