Comments by "Neil of Longbeck" (@neiloflongbeck5705) on "‘But TIK, the reason WHY Hitler started WW2 makes no sense!’" video.
Hitler not a Christian. Is that really the case? Yes, was born to a Catholic mother and was baptised and confirmed as a Catholic, but there is no evidence he we to Mass or received the sacriments after after he left home aged 18. There is no record of the Catholic church excommunicating him as would be automatically done should be have defected from the Catholic church, which means he died a Catholic. No matter what be wrote in Mein Kampf there are enough quotes from him to show that he was a Catholic including him telling Genedal Engel in 1941 that "I am now, as before, a Catholic, and will always remain so". If he wasn't a Catholic, he certainly wasn't an atheist as he spike in Mein Kampf about what could only be described as a Godhead. He also took steps against the leading atheist organisation in Germany shortly after taking power and handed its buildings over to the Catholic church, which suggests he had leanings towards that faith. But he also took steps to subordinate all Christian churches the Nazi goals. I suspect we will never know the truth, but my own conclusion from all readily available sources I'd that he was a theist with no specific faith and told his audience just what they wanted to hear so that they would do his will.
