No, Hitler was not a Christian, he wanted a return to an old Aryan ancient religion, of which name I can not think of right now. Wait, was it Odinism or something like that? I should be able to find that.

The "Hitler was a Christian" argument fails on another level too. Christians were the ones who defeated Nazism. Christians defeated Stalin too. Not much help from the Jewish community in that last battle. In fact, some of those we fought against in the Cold War are now living in Israel and the state will not turn them over to answer for their crimes.

Hitler has Christian roots and that does not mean he was a Christian, exactly my point. So why go about englobing Jews around sickos like Shumers? If you guys generalise, this is where we go to, saying Hitler was Christian. You don't like it? Well, it's not coming from me, nor from "jews".

Hitler was raised as a Catholic, as was his mother, Klara, buried in the cemetery at Leonding two days before Christmas. Although He had been an alter boy in his youth, but it was probably his mother's death that took all joy of Christmas and Christianity from him, in 1907.

It was Hitler's compatriot Heinrich Himmler, fascinated by the old Norse religion of Asatruism and Germanic-Norse mythology, who directed the Fuhrer's interests in that direction.
