In the spirit of maintaining cordiality, I would admit to my knowledge that yes Hitler was born to the Christian faith but his own particular religious practices were basically mythological. They were an amalgamation of Teutonic legend and supremacy mixed with a good dose of xenophobia and eugenics (which is ironically closer to the evolutionary than creationist perspective). Further, his persecution of some Catholics and clerics is undeniable.

Thank you for the civility. Hitler was born into the Catholic faith and attended mass throughout his childhood. I have read where he used his faith to foster the holocast, tithed to the church until his own demise, and was never excommunicated by the Catholic church. Again, not picking on faith, and I will admit, my knowledge is limited by what I have read, and there is much out there to mis-inform and mis-lead. I am not a historian nor an authority on Hitler, but few know of his ties with the Catholic church. This is not an indictment of the faith, only what evil one can do in the name of God, ie, the Taliban.
