Was Hitler a Christian?

Question

did he go to church?
not that he was REALLY a Christian, but did he pretend to be one?

Answer 1

Anyone will agree that he certainly did not abide by Christian ethics and standards, but Hitler not only declared himself a Christian, but he also attempted to legitimize his actions with religion. Here is an article on the subject:

Don't worry, it is a site discussing his history and not a nazi, anti-semitic or anti-Christian site.

Answer 2

Here is one of Hitlers quotes:

"We are all proud that through God's powerful aid, we have become once more true Germans"

Now, whether he was a Christian or not, he obviously believed in a "Higher Power". He "DID" support the Catholic church because he believed it taught and upheld moral values.

I find it interesting that so many "claim" Hitler tried to wipe out the Jews. Interesting, because over 150,000 Jews served in the Nazi Army as front-line soldiers. There were also 7 Generals serving under Hitler that were openly Jewish. The only Jews interned in concentration camps were criminals.

Answer 3

Whilst Hitler was born into a catholic family, he later left the catholic church and when he was in power had renounced Christianity. It is hard to say which religion if any he followed, but his writings suggest that he believed in some form of supernatural force.

Answer 4

Sir, the late Mr. Adolf Hitler was certainly a Christian. But how many times he went to church is open to debate - there are lots of evidence that he was of the faith. Well, unlike American presidents, Mr. Hitler had no need to decieve people of his piety - why he had that charisma to do it.

Answer 5

I don't know if he was a Christian. I do know that it was a nation that is mostly Christian that defeated him. He also had very high approval ratings among the German population. Something that Bush doesn't have so I guess you can all breathe a heavy sigh of relief now.

Answer 6

Hitler was Catholic and later became head Nazi. Christianity is a bloody religion.

Answer 7

As a child he was raised Catholic -- he was from Austria, and a majority of Austrians are Catholic.

But by the time he rose to power in Germany, he had abandoned his Catholicism long before.

Answer 8

dont know about him going to church, but i've read in a lot of places that he was Christian.

Answer 9

He claimed to be a Christian, and that he was doing 'gods work'

Answer 10

Yes, he was Catholic. He had even attended seminary for a brief period. His hatred for Jews was fueled by his religious convictions, which were common worldwide at the time.
