Hitler and the Nazis are often cited as an example of the horrible crimes which atheists have committed in the 20th century. They are only assumed to be atheists, though, because people can’t imagineChristians doing such things; in reality, Hitler explicitly appealed to Christianity on a regular basis and this was part of why he was popular. Not every Christian supported the Nazis, of course, but he was most popular with conservative Christians seeking a restoration of traditional values. . . . .
Christians may not like acknowledging that Nazi actions might have anything to do with Christianity, but Germany saw itself as a fundamentally Christian nation and millions of Christians in Germany enthusiastically endorsed Hitler and the Nazi Party in part because they saw both as embodiments of both German and Christian ideals. Conservative Christians who wanted a return to traditional values either voted for the Nazis or one of the other right-wing nationalist parties which eventually supported and merged with the Nazis.

These people are very dangerous I think.
Beware also Revelation TV. coming to your country soon, they might seem a nice, peaceful English Religious channel but they are no different to the rest in reality, their message and idea’s are the same.
They throw in that word “conservative” around very lightly. What does that mean? It conjours up in our minds images modern evangelical Christianity. This is not the same thing! The return to traditional values was to “German” values over anything else.
The Christianity of Hitler was a nationalistic and Marcionite (a bit of Arian as well) version of Christianity as Hitler did not allow for the Old Testament. The Gld Testament God and the New Testament God were different in Hitler’s views.
Crosses were replaced with Swastika’s and the Bible was no longer considered authoritative.
In fact if you look at the theology of the Reich church it is well inline with Fredrich Shliermacher (The father of Liberal Theology).
In opposition to the German Liberal Christianity, arose movements like the Confessing Churches, and the Neo-orthodoxy movement of Karl Barth, as well as the Barmen Declaration. All of which are influences on the modern Evangelical Christianity.
Dissect it as you may, one is still left with theism in general, Christianity in particular.
