CHRISTIANITY OF COURSE

Hitler said, "I am now as before a Catholic and will always remain so." It seems that Hitler believes it was God's will that he destroy the Jews and that Jesus was his example when He took a whip and threw them out of the temple. He blamed the Jews for all of the problems in Germany. And apparently he saw himself as a man serving God in destroying the 'enemy'. He was certainly a dangerous anti-semite and regardless of what he said, I do not believe that he was a Christian of any denomination and certainly not a follower of Christ. The man was insane. My belief on this is that the more sane we are, the more whole we are, the more holy we are, and the closer to God we are. This man lived a life that was insane, unwholesome, and unholy beyond comprehension. He was closer to Satan than to God.

Hitler was raised Catholic, but lost faith in Christianity when his mother died. He became anti-religion the more powerful he bacame.
Many people don't realize that as he was murdering the Jews, he was also "taking care of" Protestants and Catholics, though not at the same rate. It was just a matter of time before he started his focus on another group of people.

Like almost all people born in Austria at that time, Hitler was a Catholic. He grew up as an alter boy. In 1932 he was strongly supported by the German Catholic Center Party. He never renounced christianity. Many of the people supporting him did so because he espoused "strong christian values".

He was Roman Catholic.
You will find it in Mein Kampf: "Therefore, I am convinced that I am acting as the agent of our Creator. By fighting off the Jews, I am doing the Lord's Work."
Hitler said it again at a Nazi Christmas celebration in 1926: "Christ was the greatest early fighter in the battle against the world enemy, the Jews ... The work that Christ started but could not finish, I -- Adolf Hitler -- will conclude."
In a Reichstag speech in 1938, Hitler again echoed the religious origins of his crusade. "I believe today that I am acting in the sense of the Almighty Creator. By warding off the Jews, I am fighting for the Lord's work."
Hitler regarded himself as a Catholic until he died. "I am now as before a Catholic and will always remain so," he told Gerhard Engel, one of his generals, in 1941.

Adolf Hitler was brought up as a Roman Catholic by his Roman Catholic parents. According to historian Bradley F. Smith, Hitler's father, though nominally a Catholic, was a freethinker, while his mother was a devoted Catholic.

I agree with people who say he followed Christianity, but I feel that later in life, he probably followed his own
