That’s at least a theory, and more than just nekkid faith, but some important facts left out are: A. Hitler was raised in a strong Roman Catholic family, attended parochial school, served as an altar boy and considered becoming a priest.

Although the Nazis also twisted the writings of Nietzsche, the music of Wagner while manipulating the Church—and the cross itself for their symbol—as well as other things, atheism in itself probably did not account for his diabolical, irrational hatred of Jews in that he and his party had the unqualified support of Rome and local ecclesiastics, and keeping in mind that over the centuries this is time of year when we Christians would begin gearing-up for the “hunting down the `Christ-killers’” season.
“Oh, thump the tub slowly, and play the fife lowly
And play the dead march as you carry me along
Take me to the green valley and lay the earth o’er me
For I’m a poor cowboy and I know I’ve done wrong”
Alois was a strong Roman Catholic??????.....doubt that although he was illegitimate he was baptized but judging from his life and Adolf's he was not religious at all. Couldn't find anywhere where it states that Hitler (A or A) attended parochial school.....although I found it mentioned that Adolf attended singing lessons at a monastery by his home....hardly strong religious upbringing but he idolized the abbot.
That was probably because his father was brutal, beat him and his mother and half brother. Hitler hated everything about his father. It is why Hitler was "not fit to lead men." He was a sexual deviate and had intense rage over his father (classic Freud head case). Read The Hidden Hitler and find out just how "religious" Hitler was.
The Wiemar Republic, a most sexually deviant, godless, gender-bending society, was typical thinking in the areas where Hitler inhabited as a young man--in the homosexual areas of Vienna, etc. German culture embraced hedonism, occults, and rejected and condemned Judeo Christian culture. As Nietzsche so succinctly said about the prevailing philosophy.... "God is Dead."
