"Hitler despised Christianity."

He hated the churches; he did believe in a warped version of Jesus.

"He subscribed to notions of racial superiority through survival of the fittest that trace directly to your hero, Charles Darwin."

He never mentioned Darwin. He DID mention God repeatedly, and the need to protect his most perfect Creation (the Aryan Race), and how keeping it pure was doing God's work. No mention of evolution. Sorry, go back and do your homework.

"Hitler was Darwin's spiritual soulmate."

Only in your creationist fantasies. :) Hitler was no atheist.

Grist for the mill:

I'm no expert, but the general picture I get is that Hitler and
his Nazi buddies ranged from atheist to hard-core believers in
"Positive Christianity" (a sort of 'the Jews are to be eliminated and
replaced by Christians' philosophy).
But it's sure true that Hitler knew how to exploit and hijack Christian
imagery, meld it with Germanic snootiness and get millions killed in the
process.
Too bad more Christians didn't at least have the courage of Bonhoeffer.
