From what I was able to glean from this past Christmas season, it seems to me that the Nazis were trying to do it the hard way. Political correctness, the "modern" education system, the media, the left.................even some simple-minded "pastors" and "priests"............are doing a great job attempting to eliminate the concept of real Christianity in this country.
Frankly, I'm more than just a little sick of it.........

The foundation of the Nazis, Communists, Royalty, and modern government ... At least in origin the English Royalty was not absolutist, constrained by both the Church and the ancient liberties of common law.
"Disputing over the body" is surely a common enough pastime of government, however. Let's not forget the latest and most insidious version of the Lie: persuading the people that they own themselves is perhaps the best means yet to keep them in servitude.

Most of them were.
There weren't a whole lot of Polish, Czech, or Belgian Zorastroans ma'am.

That's why Putin opened the gates to keep these paranoids under some control.
The rest of the world is watching DC.

I made but a short comment. The state also considers the mind and the soul theirs too.

I did not mean to equate Paganism and the Hitler cult with Religion.

"The foundation of the Nazis, Communists, Royalty, and modern government is built upon is that a person and his body are property of the state."The statement would have been truer if you simply wrote "the foundation of modern government." Certainly, modern democracies and republics also make the same claim. "Royalty" in the sense of Christian monarchy as it had existed in Europe up through 1918 made absolutely no claim that "a person and his body" (by which I assume you mean spiritual as well as physical ownership) were the property of the state. That is not the Christian view and every monarchy in Europe from 800 AD to 1918 was overtly, unashamedly, and officially Christian, complete with the sacramental investiture of the executive.

These people mistakenly take the Nazis' advertising campaign, aimed at traditionally-minded Germans, at face falue. They ignore the actual "product" that was delivered, which includes the persecution of Christian groups and ministers. Excellent point.
The most heinous regimes of the 20th century advertised themselves as the opposite of what they actually were. The Communists in Russia during the Revolution promised peace, land and freedom to the Russian peasants. Of course we know what they really delivered. And of course, lets not forget that Clinton promised the most ethical administration in history.

The Christian-bashers love to say that the Nazis were Christians. Of course this is not true, and one of the reasons the Nazis hated the Jews so much was that they blamed them for "inventing" Christianity. But the Christian-bashers never let the truth stand in their way. They will continue their ridiculous claim, despite even more evidence proving them wrong.

"Isn't this kind of old news?"
It is, but apparently the Christian-bashers haven't gotten wind of it yet.

"The irony is, Germany during WW I had a relatively good reputation regarding its treatment of its Jewish citizens."When I was in college, I found a little booklet published by a Jewish organisation in New York (1916). I have been trying to track it down to cite it on this thread, but have not been able to locate it again. The title is The Plight of the Jews in the Eastern War Zone. It urged America NOT to go to war against Germany because Germany and Austria-Hungary were the Jews' only protectors in Eastern Europe. It would not surprise me in the least to find out that Jews were proportionately better represented in the German Imperial army and government than in any other nation's.
One reason the Nazis never played up the circumstances surrounding Hitler's award of the Iron Cross, First Class, is that the regimental adjutant who submitted the recommendation, was Jewish.

You may get a kick out of this story too: Avraham Goldfaden, the "father of Yiddish theater," had various problems with Tsarist censors, who one time simply prohibited performances in Yiddish. Goldfaden's solution? He told the censors his next production would be in "German," and the show did go on!

Take over the churches from within, using party sympathizers. Discredit, jail or kill Christian leaders. And re-indoctrinate the congregants. Give them a new faith - in Germany's Third Reich. Nothing new here. Actually these indoctrination methods were first developed in the Soviet Union. The Holocaust of Christians under the communist rule still waits to be really probed. It is not politically correct to do so at the present time.
