The terrible truth that Christians do not like to face, and which many are unaware of, is that the Holocaust was the product of 1,900 years of virulent Christian anti-Semitism

Nice example of propagating the lies told about Christianity by atheists. The Holocaust was the product of a neopagan, statist, Darwinist ideology based on racism and the mindless, idolatrous deification of an individual.

The Nazis used Martin Luther they same way they used anyone else who could be twisted to agree with them. But in fact, their ideology and their persecution of the Jews had nothing to do with either the Christian or Jewish religions at all. It was solely racist hatred and scapegoating.

That is why Jews who converted to Christianity, including to those denominations of Christianity you are so wrongly denouncing as "Nazi," were murdered just as readily as Jews who held to their religion. Case in point: St. Edith Stein, born to a Jewish family in Breslau, Germany. Became a Catholic Carmelite nun in Holland. Gassed in Auschwitz in 1942.

Any questions?

So you’re denying the direct quotes made by the Nazis in the post?

While I agree with you factually, Campion, I have to stand with GiovannaNicoletta. Even your own co-religionists have used this very idea to beat Protestants with, which I am sure you have witnessed by now. I have on occasion replied to them that Luther's antisemitism was largely a result of the times he lived in, and the religion he was unwittingly coming out of - Which I believe is a true statement, and is as such, in alignment with GiovannaNicoletta. And it IS a terrible truth that Christians of all stripes are loathe to admit.
