I invite your attention to post #171 and the following:


September 1933: German Protestant deacons meet in Hamburg to celebrate the centennial of their association. A Protestant pastor addresses his comrades in a speech entitled Deaconry as attack: "All this is Protestant deaconry: Service and fight. We greet you all as the SA of Jesus Christ and the SS of the Church, you brave ... [fighters] of need, misery, despair and dereliction." [KS57] After the war the swastika was removed from most of the photographs of the meeting. Only a few survived unaltered, such as this one.


November 15, 1933: More than a thousand Lutheran nuns, meet under the swastika. The Bishop of Berlin in his speech: "Permit me to compare our sisters with the SA!" (a paramilitary Nazi troop). (Though it may be coincidental, even the layout of this meeting, at least on this photograph, seems to resemble a huge swastika.

1) Well, we'll just have to take your word for it that those photos are of what you say they are. Why would you lie?

2) Thanks to Pacelli and the Enabling Acts, Hitler assumed control of Germany. As head of the state, he replaced most Protestant ministers with Germans who were accommodating to the Third Reich.

Hitler didn't have to do this with Catholic priests. Pacelli told them to cooperate with the Nazis, and they did. In spades.

They were all under the spell of this very charismatic but demonically controlled occultish Hitler. I don’t give any of them credit for what they did, protestant OR Catholic. Just don’t pretend catholics were so innocent. NO ONE was. They were all under a demonic deception. ALL of Germany was. That’s why they kept quiet about the holocaust.
