If that's directed at me you've spilled a lot of virtual ink to no particular purpose. I've got a pretty good knowledge of what the Nazis were and how they thought. No one to my mind has suggested (at least I haven't) that their persecutions of Jews were motivated by Christian sentiment. The problem was that they used Christian sentiment to facilitate their rise to power, and much of it was predicated on the rather widespread anti-Semitism of the time.

Even in this enlightened time, people need to be on their guard against being used in a similar manner.

I doubt that'll be a problem among present-day Christians in the United States.

After all, which group is more prone to hating Jews these days: the Secular Left or the Christian Right?
