Learn history. Your claim was that the Catholic Church helped Hitler in WWII. The concordat was not during WWII and was all about trying to protect Christians, not aiding Hitler.

The Mother Church knew who was coming to power and wanted to protect herself at the expense of others...

The Reichskonkordat is a treaty that was agreed between the Holy See and Nazi government, that guarantees the rights of the Roman Catholic Church in Germany. It was signed on July 20, 1933 by Secretary of State Eugenio Pacelli (who later became Pope Pius XII) and Vice Chancellor Franz von Papen on behalf of Pope Pius XI and President Paul von Hindenburg respectively.
